As promised, in step one itself this book opens with the most important secret of a good essay: “Demonstrate that you have understood the course material and write intelligently about your subject.” Cautioning against plagiarism and underscoring the importance of original words, the relationship between the instructor’s query and the type and nature of the essay to be written is discussed. In addition to familiarizing one with the vast array of resources available, especially over the internet, this book gives many helpful hints. Many such hints, like common mistakes to avoid or better organizing of paragraphs, make essay writing child’s play.
How to Write an Essay in Five Easy Steps by Scribendi is a brief but holistic overview of one of the most potent problems I faced in my school days. Many of the tips contained are golden advice, like the three easy ways to make an essay stand out or the need to avoid distractions during its preparation. An example essay given illustrates the principles discussed and their use, extending the reach and relevance of this book well beyond classrooms. I found this an excellent guide, not only because it answered all questions I posed on preparing a good essay, but also because it helped me with producing a scholarly and impressive document covering all aspects of the topics discussed and appropriately.
