Academic Culture: A student’s guide

ACADEMIC CULTURE: A STUDENT’S GUIDE TO STUDYING AT UNIVERSITY By JEAN BRICK National Centre for English Language Teaching and Research (NCELTR) 2006, Sydney, ISBN 978 74138 135 (pbk) ISBN 1 74138 135 5 (pbk) 263 pages Jean Brick’s book is an excellent guide to academic culture and skills for students and academics alike. Although she describes the book as being about academic culture it is much more than that. I found it to be a comprehensive, useful and very readable guide to English for a variety of academic purposes.
