Books by John M. Swales

However, the collegial tone established in previous Commentaries between Swales & Feak and instructors has been retained.This volume contains commentaries on each of the eight units plus the two appendixes.

Coverage includes understanding the intended audience, and academic genres; the use of task-based methodology, analytic group discussion, and genre consciousness-raising; how to write summaries and critiques; and helping students position themselves as junior scholars in their academic communities.
