Authored by an experienced writing instructor and a retired military officer, it is designed for members of the armed forces who are entering the academic community, having spent much of their careers either writing in the professional military context, or not writing at all. This book not only teaches officers how to write effectively, but also explains why a sound grasp of academic writing is useful for armed forces personnel in their regular duties, particularly as they reach the more senior levels of service. Chapters focus on the value of written communication skills, the difference between professional (staff) and academic writing, the research process, the writing process, academic professionalism, and common writing problems and challenges. The innovative final chapter discusses how officers can use the knowledge that they have acquired through their professional experiences in the academic context. Specific examples--chosen with a military audience in mind--are integrated throughout the text to provide the reader with relevant and practical guidance. This revised edition incorporates new examples from a more diverse set of authors, takes into account recent changes in communication technologies, and reflects new advancements in the scholarship of teaching and learning. As the only comprehensive guide to effective academic writing designed specifically for military personnel, this book is a crucial addition to the libraries of junior and senior officers in militaries worldwide."--  |c Provided by publisher.
