As Prinz and Arnbjörnsdóttir contend in this volume, academic writing requirements vary widely across disciplines, but some fundamental elements of academic writing apply to all disciplines. Therefore, I believe this book will surely be an eye-opening resource not only for students, but also for teachers and researchers from different fields. It will be most helpful in guiding them to become confident, independent writers when challenged to use English for academic, research and professional purposes in international academia.

<i>The Art and Architecture of Academic Writing</i> offers a helpful and accurate view of (academic) writing as a cyclical process. The volume gives attention to all stages in the process, and to textual features ranging from the global to the local. Clear and informative descriptions of how writing works are interspersed with engaging activities. Both teachers and students will find it an intelligent resource in the writing classroom.
