For the first time, Models for Writers is available with Achieve, Macmillan's new online course space, which includes the complete e-book, auto-scored reading comprehension quizzes, adaptive quizzing, and fully customizable pre-built writing assignments. The short, accessible readings in Models for Writers reflect the length of essays that students write in college and the topics that matter most. This beloved reader is versatile and flexible: it works in a wide range of courses and at various levels. The text is organized to spotlight the rhetorical strategies that students will use in their own essays, as well as the elements and language that will make those essays effective. The Fourteenth Edition includes both classic and new selections on relevant themes such as language and race, smartphones and social media, automation, the rising cost of education, and pronouns and gender. This edition also features an extensively revised Chapter 2 on reading actively and critically and a new Chapter 11 on voice as the writer's personality as expressed on the page.
