"Students of psychology must quickly become fluent in the writing style and requirements of the field. Miller (emer., Univ. of Florida) brings to this book his considerable experience with teaching, writing, and research methods in psychology. He addresses not only how to write - both generally and for psychology papers, reports, and articles - but also the aspects most challenging to many students: how to determine what to write and how to conduct a productive literature review. It should also be useful in courses that focus on learning how to write in psychology. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates through graduate students." - A.I. Piper, New College of Florida, in CHOICE, August 2014
