Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Century Collegiate Handbook The plan of the original Century Collegiate Handbook was simple. That of the present text is even further simplified. Virtually every article is completely rewritten, and the number of articles is reduced from 139 to 55. This drastic numerical reduction not only is effected without loss of vital content, but is accompanied by the addition of units on library research, note-taking and summarizing, the writing of term papers, and theme revision. The chart shows, on two opposite pages, the headings of articles, so that student or instructor can see at a glance the resources of the volume or the number of a par ticular item. The book, like its predecessor, throws upon the student the responsi bility of teaching himself. Each article begins with a concise rule, which is illustrated with examples; then follows an exercise which the instructor may assign by adding an x to the numeral he writes in the margin of a theme. Necessarily, while performing the exercise the student will give attention to the rule. Thus he will conquer his individual weakness through study of a basic principle, and will at every hand connect theory with practice.
