Published spring 2008. This title explains what plagiarism is, why it's wrong, and how to write a report without copying. The history of copyright protection is briefly explored, followed by a step-by-step guide to proper research and writing methods. Though it's far from enticing, the volume, illustrated with stock photographs and cartoons, is informative and accessible and could help students better understand the report-writing process.
