"No matter where you are in your nonfiction journey, you will think and work differently after reading this book. It captures the gestalt of our enterprise with empathy, insight, and a raft of sound advice."Elizabeth Fenn, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, University of Colorado Boulder“Equally inspiring for students and professors, Writing With Research covers every aspect of research-based writing. Neuschel and Rasmussen shine in their discussion of note-taking as a fundamental part of the writing process, and offer invaluable tips on how to find time to write in impossibly busy times.”Toril Moi, Duke University“An excellent guide for helping writers do what they need to do: write. Writing is thinking. This book helps established and aspiring writers break free from the linear-model of writing we so often slip into and instead embrace the creative, dynamic process of writing as thinking.”Professor G. Mitchell Reyes, Lewis & Clark College, USA, author of Global Memoryscapes and The Evolution of Mathematics
