"When I started using the Tao of Composition, I admit I was confused at first, but then I began to break it down piece by piece, and I realized how great it is.  I started using the Tao of Composition in high school, and I continue to use it now in college; it has made my life so much easier.  My professors have been impressed with how thorough my work is and how easy it is for them to check and review all of my sources. The Tao of Composition has truly been a huge asset to me."
Alexa Vujovich, Indiana University at Bloomington

"The Tao has provided me with a solid basis for writing an organized and carefully thought-out paper, applicable to the writing demands in all of the courses I have thus far encountered. This includes composing research reports and discussing both literary texts and scholarly articles.  Moreover, it has enabled me to approach any topic with a stronger analytical perspective that also expresses my personal viewpoints."
Shannon Mulligan, Austin College

"Many students coming out of high school really fear writing their first college paper, but I'm happy and lucky to say that I was not one of them.  I used the Tao of Composition in high school and continue to use it in college and it is a lifesaver.  Not only is it structured to help you write your paper faster, it helps tremendously with organization, which is where most students seem to struggle.  My freshman English professor handed back my first paper and said, 'I didn't even have to grade this it was so good.'  I owe that to the Tao."
Stephanie Best, University of Notre Dame

"The Tao is an outstanding and easy to understand guideline on how to write great papers in a more time efficient and organized manner. Normally I struggle with essay writing, but with the help of the Tao I received an "A" in a very competitive college level writing class! "
Meagan Laue, Texas A&M University

"The Tao of Composition set me miles above everyone else in my college English classes.  The format is so easy to follow and professors like the style presented in the book!  All of my friends spent hours in the library because they did not know how to correctly cite a source...but I got to go out with friends!  I got A's in all my English classes and papers were a breeze! I correct everyone else's papers now!  I highly suggest this book to anyone that has to write papers!"
