The Art Of Literature(THE ESSAYS OF ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER) vol6
Every mediocre writer tries to mask his own natural style, because in his heart he knows the truth of what I am saying. He is thus forced, at the outset, to give up any attempt at being frank or naive--a privilege which is thereby reserved for superior minds, conscious of their own worth, and therefore sure of themselves. What I mean is that these everyday writers are absolutely unable to resolve upon writing just as they think; because they have a notion that, were they to do so, their work might possibly look very childish and simple.
This textbook on syntax gives students a thorough grounding in the basics of sentence structure, and at the same time acquaints them with the essentials of syntactic argumentation. This new edition is completely revised, with the chapter on X-bar syntax now split in two to give greater prominence to clauses. It also contains many new exercises, which are now graded in terms of level of difficulty. Each chapter has a section on suggested further reading material, and there is a bibliography and list of recommended reference works.
INVOLVING THE COMMUNITY : A Guide to Participatory Development Communication

working in research and development. It introduces participatory
development communication concepts, discusses the effective two-way
communication approaches, and presents a methodology to plan, develop,
and evaluate communication strategies to address the following
questions:
How can researchers and practitioners improve communication with local communities and other stakeholders?
How
can two-way communication enhance community participation in research
and development initiatives and improve the capacity of communities to
participate in the management of their natural resources?
How
can researchers, community members, and development practitioners
improve their ability to effectively reach policymakers and promote
change?
'More analysis needed' is a comment lecturers repeatedly have to write on their students' work. Proceeding beyond this level of feedback is difficult when many students don't understand what analysis is or how to integrate criticism into their work. With this in mind, "Critical Thinking Skills" has taken the seemingly baffling art of analysis and broken it down into easy to understand blocks, with clear explanations, good examples, and plenty of activities to develop understanding at each stage. It even applies the techniques to reading, note making and writing.
