Are you a
sociology student who needs some help with writing?
Are
you a sociology professor who wants to learn or explore methods for different
types of writing?
Are
you someone who has ever written anything and thought you should have written
it better?
Then this is the book for you!
Writing for Emerging Sociologists is a writing guide designed to provide useful advice
and instruction to sociology undergraduate and graduate students. While focused
on the variety of writing projects that sociologists undertake, this book
covers writing topics for all students and professionals, including: Selecting
a research topic and active reading; library database keyword searches; grant
writing; book reviews; encyclopedia entries; the IRB process; editing and
revising; policy briefs; and even the Graduate Record Exam. Additionally, this
title offers more sociology specific instruction on topics such as citation
styles, writing for surveys, interviews and focus groups; and writing a
research paper and literature review.
Not all writing in Writing for Emerging Sociologists falls
within the realm of the strictly academic as much of the writing students do
regularly is based on the use of technology and media in today's world. This
book addresses the writing in constructing emails and letters; and writing for
newspapers, magazines and blogs. It also discusses how technology is used in
information-gathering and analysis.
