A bit dated, but it's a good overview of how to organize yourself to write a good paper. I'd like to see an updated edition that doesn't treat the internet as some new invention....also, that doesn't talk about a typewriter and taking notes only with index cards.

In my opinion, learning how to write competent research papers requires a lot of time and effort. But when a student needs to write a research paper urgently and there is no time, it is better to entrust your academic task to the professionals of the WriteMyEssays service. This is an excellent solution to avoid problems and bad grades, because students do not always have the time and knowledge. And thanks to the writing service, you can learn how to write research papers on a specific topic correctly.

Quick and enjoyable read with great tips on writing a research paper. A bit outdated and thus some aspects and tips can be skipped or altered to fit more modern research styles but it’s an interesting look into how things were done in decades past. Still helpful enough to keep around as reference. The cover is a badass design too (lol).
