Good resource

4.0 out of 5 stars A useful resource, especially for those whose first language is not English

A. · 18 November 2018

This book provides a detailed look at the ethical issues of avoiding plagiarism and the various options for citing and referencing the work of others when writing academic documents. I think that the book is particularly aimed at those whose first language is not English because it goes into a lot a detail when explaining grammatical terms, which the typical native speaker would be familiar with.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every Students Must Have...
