Ramy Hanna: Finding the right words can be difficult especially if you're a new graduate student like me. This book helped me adjust the flow of my first review paper and get my message across more cohesively. Why don't more people know about this? Wish I had found it sooner.

Kris: Excellent work. I always found it difficult to precisely express my ideas in a written academic format. However, this book has eased my fears over my ability to do so. Thanks to this book my writing will be elevated to the next level.
The reason why I did not give 5 stars is because the book should be longer with even more phrases and explanations of academic language.

Natalia: When I was doing my M.A. in an English-speaking country, I'd waste a lot of time when writing my term papers looking for a formal/academic-sounding way of conveying what I wanted to say. I mean, how many times can you write "So and So claim..." or "This study aims..." before your reader thinks there is something seriously wrong with your command of the English language? I'd end up looking for articles not for content but for form and lifting the expressions from there. Needless to say, that was really time-consuming. Luiz Otavio Barros has saved us that precious writing time: he's listed the most useful sentences and phrases in Academic English, esp. for term papers and articles. The book itself follows the stages of an article and brings the gambits you'll need to write your introduction, then the literature review, then the methodology, and so on, so forth. On top of that, each chapter ends with a few tips/explanations based on common language mistakes learners make, followed by a short exercise to consolidate what you've read.

Whilst I normally buy physical books for academia, this really is well suited for kindle. Easy to pick up, straightforward searching... it’s a winner.
