About the Book

Inquiry in Context: Critical Reading and Analytical Writing provides students with opportunities to build strong reading, writing, and thinking practices associated with research writing. The text presents rhetorical material that focuses on the critical skills of annotating, questioning, summarizing, paraphrasing, analyzing, synthesizing, and reflecting, as well as documenting and evaluating sources. Additionally, a reader of fiction and non-fiction canonical and contemporary visual and literary texts engage students with the intersecting themes of self, society, identify, power, technology, and nature.

Through inquiry-based, multi-modal, and multi-literate explorations, the text encourages student to invest in critical and mindful reading as a means of developing the kind of understanding that enables effective, innovative, and insightful academic writing. It challenges readers to make novel and compelling connections among ideas and phenomena to offer unique claims about and solutions for enduring problems. The book presents research and research writing that both mirrors real-life research activities and also prepares students for research writing assignments commonly expected from undergraduate and graduate student writers.

Inquiry in Context is an exemplary text for composition courses at all academic levels. It can also support courses in literature, critical studies, and rhetoric, as well as writing-intensive courses in the humanities and social sciences.

Helen Doss, Ph.D. is a professor of English and Literature as well as the coordinator of first-year composition within the Department of English, Literature and Reading at Wilbur Wright College, one of the City Colleges of Chicago. She holds a Ph.D. from the University of California, Santa Cruz in literature with specialization in the history of science and pre- and early modern literature. Her current research examines representations of reproduction and intersectional experiences in 19th century British and contemporary women writers of African descent; women, migration, and work in contemporary China and Russia; and depictions of polar regions in cultural analyses of climate change.
