The book helps writers learn new strategies inductively, by looking at firsthand examples of how they operate rhetorically, as well as deductively, through careful explanations in the text. The work focuses on invention, allowing writers to develop their own style as they analyze writing from varied genres. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a departure from the deficiency model associated with other commonly used style guides, author Paul Butler encourages writers to see style as a malleable device to use for their own purposes, rather than a domain of rules or privilege. He encourages writing instructors to present style as a practical, accessible, and rhetorical tool, working with models that connect to a broad range of writing situations-including traditional texts like essays, newspaper articles, and creative nonfiction as well as digital texts in the form of tweets, Facebook postings, texts, email, visual rhetoric, YouTube, and others. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Though designed for use in first-year composition courses in which students are learning to write for various audiences, purposes, and contexts, \u003ci\u003eThe Writer's Style\u003c\/i\u003e is a richly layered work that will serve anyone considering how style applies to their professional, personal, creative, or academic writing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Butler\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1607328097\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781607328094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Utah State University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.60d","brand":"Paul Butler","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46383939453183,"sku":"9781607328094","price":23.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fe1ecd3f-589e-481c-8d45-177c5ad30b30.jpg?v=1733282145","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-writers-style-paul-butler-9781607328094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
