The 13th Edition upholds the philosophy and approach of previous editions in an updated and contemporary manner. Each chapter is a steppingstone to the next, and readings throughout include engaging, relevant topics pertinent to the college community. Examples from respected sources, such as The Associated Press and the Los Angeles Times, model strong writing. Lexile levels have also been added next to longer readings.
