Book excerpt: By the authors of the popular Class Act, From Thought to Finish expands on the active, audience approach defined by their previous title. With engaging new readings, stimulating pedagogy and balanced grammar review this text encourages students to think of writing not just as composition but as communication. The text also acknowledges that today's students have access to unprecedented amounts of information and that the key to knowledge and success depends on logical and critical thinking and the creative use and communication of information. To this end, the pedagogy surrounding the readings reinforces logical thinking and argumentation.
