The Culture of Craft: Status and Future (Studies in Design & Material Culture) Customer Review: ‘The Culture of Craft’
This book is very useful for people who are researching the culture behind crafts and designer-makers. It explains the historical side of crafts well, but mainly focuses on problems faced by modern makers and the social issues of consumerism. Peter Dormer provides a good introduction to the actual meaning of the word ‘craft’ and its origins. It is a very detailed book and great for writing a craft-related dissertation.

Writing Fiction: A Guide to Narrative Craft Customer Review: A must for serious novelists
Every section teaches a critical skill, each essential for the mastery of novel writing. My copy is thumbworn from constant reference on how to apply specific techniques. If you are a beginning novelist and want to understand how to get started on the right foot, you must read this book.
Customer Review: Best book on the craft of writing ever written!
I teach writing in the UCLA Writer’s Program (online) and always recommend this and “What If” by Ann Bernays and Pam Painter. Burroway’s book is absolutely the best book on the craft of writing I’ve ever found. Anybody who aims to write well would do him- or herself a huge favor by buying this book. I’ve been drawn to it over and over when writing my own books, “The Death of Tarpons” (novel), “Monday’s Meal” (Collection of short stories; and my forthcoming “Over Easy” from Random House and Ballantine Books (1999). I’m now involved in writing screenplays and the techniques Ms. Burroway covers in her book cover that form as well. I think giving it 5 stars is not enough and if it were possible to award ten stars, I would, enthusiastically. If you only buy one book on writing in your lifetime, make it this one!

Craft of Research (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing & Publishing) Customer Review: Brilliant, specially for researchers that don’t have a clue.
People keep telling me that they do not know how to start writing a journal/conference paper or how to start their thesis and I always recommend this book. It was one of the first books I had to read when I started my PhD and I am still thanking the professor who told me to buy this book.

Highly recommended, especially if you are new to research and you are in any of the social sciences, including information systems ;).
Customer Review: The most under rated book ever
This book lay in my university library untouched for the four years it had been on the shelves I found it completley by accident because I was sick and tired of being given research models and methodology papers that never made any sense but to run through the shredder, several times!!!! This book has to be the ultimate step by step guide to writing any form of research paper or even a two page essay argument why in the world they keep bringing the 150,000 number out I have no idea because every person who has to write a paper or just wants to write papers for fun (if there is such a thing) should have a copy of this book and plus 10 quid isn’t exactly going to break the student coffers. :)

The Craft of Scientific Writing

Thinking Through Craft -

The Craft of Scientific Writing Customer Review: Excellent way to improve your writing skills
This book is an excellent way for you to improve your scientific writing. He works through everything from Introduction, Structure, Language and Illustrations by first stating his points and suggestions and then illustrating them with examples. This is a very good way to present his views and ideas, when you read an example of weak and strong writing you realise immediately which one is the better although it would take quite some effort to describe in writing what makes the difference. He offers many hands on tips and hints to improve as well.

This book is a good reference to look up things later on. I have learned a lot from this book, and I can recomend it.

Customer Review: amazing book
this is a cool book. this is “The Elements of Style” by William Strunk Jr for scientific writing. heck, even science fiction writers could benefit from the material!
