Hardback. Revision seems to be an intrinsic part of good writing. But Hannah Sullivan argues that we inherit our faith in redrafting from the modernist period.

Num Pages: 322 pages, 11 line illustrations. BIC Classification: CBV; DSB. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 239 x 167 x 27. Weight in Grams: 674.
