About The Missing Manual

Essay Writing Manual
The Missing Manual essay-writing guide is due for online publication in summer 2014.  Presented as clearly and unambiguously as an instruction manual, it is a practical, easy-to-use reference guide for how to write better essays.

The guide covers fundamentals such as how to write an essay introduction or how to conclude an essay persuasively, as well covering all the little jobs that really make the difference when it comes to gaining marks: how to edit your essay into a more cohesive piece; how to make your research work for you; how to get the most of your word power; and much more besides.
