argumentative structure – away of organizing apiece of text by presenting in turn two or more viewpoints
identified by the author, such as competing theories, alternate sides in a controversy, or differing empirical interpretations. The case for
one viewpoint is given in full,
then the case for one or more alternative views, for example, in a for and against or pros and cons pattern. pp. 70–4]
authoring – the complete process of producing
a finished piece of text,
that is envisaging what to write, planning it in outline,
drafting passages, writing the whole thing, revising and
remodelling text, and finishing
it in an appropriate form, together with publishing all or parts of the text. p. 1]
bibliography – an exhaustive list of all the articles, books and other works cited in a thesis or book. A bibliography should always beset out completely in one sequence arranged by alphabetical order of authors’
main names. Bibliographies should never be segmented (for instance,
into separate lists for
primary and secondary sources, because that would violate the
one-stop lookup criterion. Every thesis needs a bibliography, whatever referencing or notes system is used. pp. 122–33]
