Part of the writing process can be controlled and part cannot: writing feeds on enough time and good work habits. THE PSYCHOLOGY STUDENT WRITER'S MANUAL describes writing as a creative process in need of planning: finding an argument that will keep a discussion going all the way to more than one possible conclusion; fitting in source materials from the Internet and the library; fixing the usual grammar and style mistakes; and following APA style format and source citation. Jill M. Scott et al not only cover psychological correlation, description and experimentation paper writing but also handle genograms, which they clearly explain and illustrate, and professional ethics. The book helps writers in all fields and is every bit as well organized and written as Christopher Thaiss and James F. Sanford's WRITING FOR PSYCHOLOGY.

This book is probably the only book available which goes into detail about the different Old Order and Conservative Mennonite Groups. Its coverage of the Old Order groups is a little better than that of the Conservative Mennonite groups (such as the Nationwide Fellowship or the Bethel Conservative Fellowship). However, anyone who is serious about joining (or researching) the Old Order and Conservative Mennonites should definitely have this book.

The BEST general reference book on Conservative and Old Order Mennonites. Explains the subtle differences between groups, as well as their history. Very readable for someone who is just generally interested in Plain People, and packed with detailed information for those seeking more depth. If you want info about Conservative Mennonites and can only buy one book, this is the one.

No surprises here this volume was not worth the money I paid for it. As plain and colorless as a textbook can be. I recommend Richard Marius "A Short Guide to Writing About History" instead.
