Book excerpt: "Influenced by the principles of writing across the curriculum, Blooming with the Pouis provides students with a range of readings selected to enhance the development of writing skills in all academic disciplines. Multidisciplinary in approach, the Reader presents selections from Caribbean literature, culture, geography, history, education, religion, economics, and the pure and applied sciences, which help students expand their vocabulary and improve their critical thinking skills.Concise, yet comprehensive, Blooming with the Pouis enforces the perception of reading as both an academic pursuit and means of engaging society. Using both classic and contemporary Caribbean writings, students are exposed to a full volume of expository and argumentative material. The Reader is divided into four sections: exposition, argument, mixed modes and additional readings. It contains excellent examples of discourse types as well as several exercises to improve students analytical skills. "
