Abstract

When asked to critique a piece of writing, students are often confused about what this actually means in practice. This book explains and demonstrates 13 different ways of undertaking a critique and underlines the difference between critiquing an article, book, or past project. It will help readers build their confidence whilst encouraging them to develop their own methods. Each chapter contains sample passages, example critiques and explanations of underlying theory to consolidate readers understanding and skills.
