"The authors of this book draw information from the manual that is specific to academic writing and expand upon it using set-up instructions and a sample paper. The end result of this transformational process yields a useful guide that can be used along with the actual manual for successful academic writing. The handbook covers many detailed specifications of the APA style... including in-text citations, source citations, and a sample paper. It also sheds new light on the manual using step-by-step processes and exemplification that enable readers to fulfil APA rules and regulations while focusing on content, rather than the format, of their academic research." -- Back cover.
