Overview
In Harmony offers you integrated thematic instruction at the sentence and paragraph level. Each chapter is presented in the context of a resonant theme, designed to engage you with topics such as interpersonal relationships, living between 2 worlds, and digital communication. Student and professional essays start each chapter and serve as the basis for instruction, illustration and practice. Author Kathleen McWhorter emphasizes critical thinking throughout, which will prepare you for your college courses and beyond.
The 3rd Edition is the first text in a 2-part series that illustrates reading and writing as a single process of understanding and expressing ideas, which really do work together in harmony. This volume concentrates on sentences and paragraphs; In Concert explores paragraphs and essays.
