'Covering a rich array of subjects, this handbook offers its readers necessary historical contexts and charts a future course for research in classroom writing. It approaches writing from cognitive, psychological, and sociocultural perspectives; provides new models of instruction supported by strong theoretical bases; and introduces relevant methodologies to the beginning and experienced scholar alike. This book should be on the shelves of all researchers of writing and literacy.' - Douglas Kaufman, PhD, Neag School of Education, University of Connecticut

'The Handbook of Writing Research arrived just in time for my doctoral seminar on writing! Each chapter in this wonderfully comprehensive volume provides a review and synthesis of current research and theory on a different aspect of writing. My students will be introduced to contributions by a range of international authors who discuss cognitive, affective, sociocultural, and instructional aspects of writing product, process, and context, and who raise critical issues and questions that give us direction for further research. Writing teachers like myself, writing program administrators, writing researchers, literacy specialists, teachers, and graduate students undoubtedly will find this handbook an invaluable resource for deepening our understanding of the complex nature of writing.' - Karen Bromley, PhD, Literacy Program and America Reads Program, School of Education and Human Development, Binghamton University, State University of New York
