There is a great emphasis on accurate referencing in written work for university students & those writing for professional purposes, but little information on the 'when' & 'why', as well as the 'how' of referencing. This book gives clear guidelines on how to correctly cite from external sources, what constitutes plagiarism, & how to avoid it.
