Recensioner i media

Academic Culture is comprehensive yet accessible. Lucid and engaging examples encourage the reader to reflect on their own learning, and each chapter contains writing tasks that require careful thought and consideration. I would thoroughly recommend this book for students of all disciplines looking to navigate the intricacies of university life, excel at academic writing and develop a critical academic voice.
