Academic Writing Books

Academic writing includes research papers, master’s theses, and dissertations.

“Academic writing sometimes seems like a tricky task because most disciplines want you to use certain conventions. As with any other writing project, you should read papers and books in the relevant discipline before writing your own papers.” –from The Everything Improve Your Writing Book by Pamela Rice Hahn
