The most thorough support for the reading-writing connection.
With more critical reading coverage than any other composition text, Reading Critically, Writing Well helps students read for meaning and read like a writer. A robust catalog of reading strategies complement assignment chapters that cover four expository genres, including autobiography/literacy narratives and reflection, and four argumentative genres, including evaluation and proposal.

This new edition brings on noted reading scholar Ellen Carillo (University of Connecticut), and provides more opportunities for students to learn and practice complex reading and writing strategies, with a new emphasis on inquiry, curiosity, and habits of mind. Accessible instruction, engaging readings, and effective writing assignments make Reading Critically, Writing Well ideal for instructors who want to demonstrate critical analysis and the effective rhetorical choices that students can make in their own writing.
50 professional plus 8 student readings model the full range of writing that students will read and produce in college, including major rhetorical genres as well as multigenre essays. Selections represent an array of disciplines and themes, from social sciences and humanities to food studies and neuroscience. Readings by classic and contemporary authors include Wesley Morris, Jacqueline Woodson, David Sedaris, and Stephen King.
An engaging and practical introduction to writing in Chapter 1 introduces an inquiry-based approach and the essential academic habits of mind—curiosity, flexibility, metacognition, and more-- that students need to succeed in college.
Innovative, expert, and thorough coverage of the reading-writing connection provides detailed guidance for students in moving from critical reading to successful writing and is found in each readings chapter:
- Step-by-step Guides to Reading walk students through a reading selection, asking them to develop their own interpretations while introducing them to the basic features of that chapter's genre of writing.
- Step-by-step Guides to Writing take students through the process of planning, drafting, and revising an essay for that chapter's genre of writing, supported by a combination of examples, advice on working with sources, and model sentence strategies.
- A Catalog of Reading Strategies in Chapter 2 includes 20 useful strategies for critical reading, from annotating and mapping to analyzing and evaluating the logic of an argument. Combining Reading Strategies activities provide students with further opportunities to deepen their understanding of a reading and provide direction for writing.
Activities for active learning accompany each reading and invite students to learn by doing. Tailored questions prepare students to read and summarize each reading, then respond and analyze the writer's assumptions. Analyze & Write prompts help students practice writing about each selection. Annotated example paragraphs and sentence strategy templates foreground the rhetorical moves students need to learn to write effectively in the classroom and beyond.
Alternative tables of contents by discipline and theme allow instructors the flexibility to chart their own path through the readings to meet their course goals.
New to This Edition
New coauthor Ellen C. Carillo (University of Connecticut) brings her expertise in the teaching of critical reading alongside writing in the composition classroom. Her research and scholarship explore the most effective ways of incorporating attention to reading in writing classrooms and underscore the importance of teaching within a metacognitive framework so that students are positioned to transfer their learning to other courses and contexts beyond the classroom.
New readings on compelling topics that spark student interest. The more than twenty new selections in the twelfth edition of Reading Critically, Writing Well include writers ranging from local activists to Pulitzer Prize winners, giving students both local and global models to refer to. Highlights include:
- Disability activist Alice Wong's "The Last Straw" questions bans on plastic straws and proposes ways for establishments to cultivate accessible and hospitable environments.
- Local journalist Isiah Holmes's "The Heroin and Opioid Crisis is Real" investigates the opioid crisis in Milwaukee and urges the city to help those suffering from addiction.
- Pulitzer prize-winning surgeon Atul Gawande's "The Heroism of Incremental Care" observes several doctors to better understand the importance of incremental healthcare models.
New coverage of Literacy Narratives in Chapter 3 now includes a discussion of the rhetorical situation for literacy narratives and model sentence strategies to get students started. There's also a new professional essay by Molly Montgomery, "In Search of Dumplings and Dead Poets," and a new model student essay, Rhea Jameson's "Mrs. Maxon."
A new Chapter 11, "Multigenre Writing: Pulling It All Together," shows students how authors combine genres to meet the needs of their specific rhetorical situations, and how they can do this in their own writing as well, helping them to become more flexible and natural writers with skills that transfer beyond the writing classroom.
A robust Chapter 12, "Strategies for Research and Documentation," walks students through the process of conducting various kinds of research, provides helpful guidelines for researching and evaluating the reliability of sources, and offer instructions and models for MLA and APA style.
New "Combining Reading Strategies" assignments in each chapter walk students through using multiple reading strategies to gain a deeper understanding of what they are reading, helping them to practice and develop the higher level reading skills necessary for college level work.
"The book contains a fantastic collection of readings. The diverse disciplines and interesting authors (some standard and familiar, others contemporary and edgy) show a thoughtful approach."
--Michael Trovato, Ohio State University-Newark
"It is one of the best texts I've seen for teaching critical reading. The Catalog of Reading Skills section alone is worth the price of the book."--Peggy Lindsey, Georgia Southern University
"I think it is one of the best books for teaching writing. It presents students clear, concise, practical advice about getting more out of their academic reading and writing. The model essays for each genre are particularly useful as are the tips on how to read, write and trouble-shoot essays."--Deron Walker, California Baptist University
"It's a textbook that thinks deeply and demonstrates well key approaches to critical, engaged reading practices, and that it makes clear the ways in which such reading informs and feeds the writing process. I love the way it models and charts the reading and writing processes."--Julie Brown, Virginia Military Institute
