Signs: A Grammar Handbook

Featuring a new section on writing contexts, processes, and rhetorical argumentation, the second edition of Signs goes above and beyond the average grammar handbook. Using tips, exercises, and notes for multilingual writers, the handbook gives students helpful signposts on their journey toward effective language use. New to the second edition is a full section on composing an essay, with topics including paragraphing, the writing process, research, rhetoric, and integrating sources. To compete with handbooks that feature rhetorical front matter, the new edition covers new citation styles (including Chicago, CSE and MLA 9th edition) and New Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CLD) Opportunities to allow students to reflect in mechanical or composing moments that highlight language variety.
