Academic writing addresses a topic based article to any-one who is seeking factually-based, objectively-presented information onthis particular topic. Academic writing is a process. It starts from analy-zing and understanding the topic. It then goes on to doing the literature re-view and research. The next stage is planning and writing various drafts.In the final stage, it is followed by proof-reading and editing. All thisshould lead to a well presented final text in a specific format.Hope this textbook will be beneficial for all students and readers who wantto improve their academic writing.
