| book description |

This book takes a philosophical approach to the question â€˜what is academic writing?â€™ and specifically explores the question of how academic writing and writing development can be better understood and developed by lecturers in higher education. It examines how a number of interconnected and interdisciplinary political, linguistic, discursive, ontological and epistemological frameworks can be used to inform a â€˜post-qualitativeâ€™ approach for research into higher education academic writing practices, employing a Bourdusian/ Deluzean inspired approach. Using lecturersâ€™ own perceptions and experiences of academic writing, and treating them as part of a â€˜professional academic writing in higher education habitusâ€™, the book illustrates and analyses a number of ideas and concepts through a broadly post-qualitative paradigm. It also offers a number of innovative academic writing and writing development practices. Offering an in-depth discussion into how lecturers might better negotiate academic writing practices and use their own academic writing experiences to develop studentsâ€™ writing, this book will be highly relevant to academics, scholars and post-graduate students working in higher education.
