Produktdetaljer
Biografisk notat
Roger Kreuz is an associate dean and Professor of Psychology at the University of Memphis, USA. He has written several books on language and communication for general audiences and writes a monthly column for Psychology Today. This book was born out of an academic interest in how language use affects a person's identity and the shifting public attitudes regarding the concepts of plagiarism and appropriation, as well as over thirty years as a professor who has had first-hand experience with student plagiarism.'In this book, Kreuz offers a breezy account of actual, suspected, or accidental plagiarism. Featuring examples drawn from literature, music, and politics, Kreuz gives example after example of plagiarism-and some copyright infringements too-by writers who are famous, infamous, or essentially unknown.' Dennis Baron, author of You Can't Always Say What You Want
'An engaging new perspective on the topic of plagiarism. The book is overflowing with stories of real-world instances of plagiarism in professional contexts from academia, politics, and journalism, to the creative arts. These stories inform an insightful analysis of the causes and consequences of plagiarism.' Guy J. Curtis, editor of Academic Integrity in the Social Sciences
'Strikingly Similar is an essential resource for those interested in plagiarism. Kreuz has compiled a comprehensive history of a topic critical to writers and academics. This book provides important lessons and cautionary tales from the history of writing for the age of AI.' David Rettinger, author of Cheating Academic Integrity, and President Emeritus of the International Center for Academic Integrity
