Description

They Say / I Say: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing (5th Edition)

They Say / I Say identifies the essential rhetorical moves that define academic writing, demystifying the process for students and professional writers alike. By teaching writers how to frame their arguments as a response to what others have said, this guide helps position individual ideas within a larger intellectual conversation. The book provides practical, field-tested templates that help writers initiate these moves and develop complex, persuasive arguments with clarity.

This updated 5th edition features a wealth of new examples from diverse academic disciplines. It includes specialized guidance on entering online discussions, a thoroughly updated chapter on writing within the social sciences, and contemporary readings that demonstrate effective rhetorical moves in action. Designed to be both a classroom staple and a lifelong reference, this edition continues to empower writers to engage more effectively with the ideas of others.
