Writing for the Government
Libby Allison and Miriam F. Williams
"Writing for the Government" blends experience-based theory with actual workplace applications from a wide range of fields and documents to prepare readers for positions in government. Taking a rhetorical approach to writing, the authors encourage students to consider every document's audience, purpose, and cultural context and increase the effectiveness of their communication. Writing is also presented as a process, particularly collaborative, in which authors have a stake in the outcome. The purpose is to prepare students to become "adaptable" writers regardless of their job, their agency, or its writing tasks.
