I want to cite and reference C.S. Lewis from "God in the Dock", but I only have a collected works volume, where that is the third book in the volume.  I don't understand the APA format yet, and I cannot find out how to in-text cite or reference it.   I would appreciate any help.

I think it should be like this:\n\nLeweis, C.S. (date of publication). "God in the Dock." In editor's name (Ed.), title of book (page numbers). City of publication, state of publication: publisher.\n\n\nI can't show it properly here, but remember that the second  line would be indented.  Also, to help you in the future, you might consider buying (or borrowing from the library) a book called Writer's Inc.  It's extraordinarily helpful whenever I write, and it has both MLA and APA format with lots of examples.

a bibliography is a list of all the sources you referenced in your writing, whether or not you actually quoted them or not. a works cited is a list of all the sources you actually quoted in your writing. the format should be the same, but it depends on what you are supposed to use. There is MLA format, or APA. These two styles depend on how you actually cite the information in the paper itself. \nDepending on what you need to use, there's www.apastyle.net, or http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/research/r_mla.html for MLA.

"...can it be backed up with scripture?"\n\nCertainly not; it's not Scriptural.  It's a pseudo-religious phrasing of an old conservative attitude.

You dont have to. Just cite what the journal author said. You dont have to worry about the "other" author because it wasnt from HIS work that you found your information. Just cite the author of the article YOU read.

There is a book held by very few libraries called Catholic from the Inside Out.  The bibliographic record does not list an author, which can mean it has multiple authors.  The record I saw also has this note--Responsibility: the Core Group.\nThis sounds to me like some sort of committee.  I'd suggest that if you are writing a citation for this book, it should look something like this:\n\nCatholic from the inside out : \nevangelizing the culture of our parish school / \nNew York: Garden & Wall, 2003.\n\nItalicize or underline the title.  Good luck.

"When citing a sacred text such as the Bible or the Qur'an, name the edition you are using in your works cited entry (see item 14). In your parenthetical citation, give the book, chapter, and verse (or their equivalent), separated by periods. Common abbreviations for books of the Bible are acceptable. \n\nConsider the words of Solomon: "If your enemies are hungry, give\nthem food to eat. If they are thirsty, give them water to drink"\n(Holy Bible, Prov. 25.21).\n\n\nWorks Cited list:\n\nThe Holy Bible: King James Version. Iowa Falls, IA: World Bible Publishers, 2001. \n\n{underline the first six words: The Holy Bible: King James Version.}\n\nSee this site, too:\nhttp://myrin.ursinus.edu/help/resrch_guides/cit_style_mla.htm

Probably not a bible reference, without the book name it's meaningless.   Bible references are usually, book name, chapter, verse.\n\nthe first  book of the bible is Genesis, and Genesis 1:27 is \n\n\nSo God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.\n\nwhich I suppose could mean something in a relationship sense...but Genesis 27:13 is \n\nBut his mother said to him, "Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me."\n\nWhich makes little sense outside of the context.  Based on the little I know I would guess he's referring to something else.\n\n\nDid the ad mention anything about backpacking? I found a reference to 13er..\n\n"We will then hike a 13er! (an alpine mountain higher than 13,000 feet above sea level)."

MLA) How do I cite an image, photograph or work of art?\n\n\nPrint\n\nSave to list\n\nE-mail\n\nSubscribe\n\nIf you are citing an image within an online image database (e.g., Corbis, American Memory), where the image is not retrieved as part of a publication (like an online newspaper or magazine), use the "Painting, Sculpture or Photograph" citation form, select "online" as the publication medium, and then indicate whether the photograph is a work of art (the original appears in a museum or collection) or if it is a documentary photograph (usually attributed to a separate copyright holder). An image may appear within a Web site like Corbis or Getty Images (give "Corbis" or "Getty Images" as the name of the Web site and provide a link to the photograph preview when possible). If the image appears on a Web page that is not part of a larger image database and you did not read or use the other material on that Web page, you can cite the image separately as described above. If you did make use of other material on the Web page, cite the Web page as a whole in your Works Cited list and then refer to the specific image in-text.\n\nTo cite an image from the AccuNet/AP Multimedia Archive database, please click here for instructions specific to that database (if you want to create a citation that matches the example citation given by that database).\n\nIf you are citing the original painting, sculpture, or photograph, use the "Painting, Sculpture or Photograph" citation form. You will be asked for information on where that artwork is housed (e.g. a museum or the name or owner of a private collection).\n\nIf you are citing a reproduction of an original work of art in a secondary source, you can either (a) select the type of publication (e.g. book, magazine) and choose "A photograph of a work of art" when asked what specific content you are citing, or (b) select "Painting, Sculpture or Photograph" as the citation type, identify the secondary source type on the following screen under "But your source may also be..." and then choose "A photograph of a work of art" when asked about the specific content type. If you are not sure if this is a reproduction of an original artwork, check the picture's caption for an artist's name or copyright owner (e.g. Getty Images), and other copyright information such as the size of the original artwork.\n\nIf you are citing an image, illustration, or documentary photograph that is attributed to a separate copyright holder and appears within a book or periodical (for example, a photograph in a New York Times Online article that shows that Getty Images is the content provider), follow the directions above for a work of art in a secondary source but answer "A documentary photograph or illustration" to the question about what specific material you are citing. Note that if you use content from the article in the periodical or section of the book as well as the image itself, you should cite the entire article or section in your Works Cited list, and then refer to the image in-text if necessary.\n\nIf you use an image, photograph or illustration created for and original to a book, magazine or other publication, then we recommend* that you cite the publication and refer to the image in a parenthetical reference. An example is an illustration in a picture book or a photograph taken by the author of a magazine article. *This case is not specifically covered in the MLA Handbook.\n\nIf you are citing a photograph that you took yourself follow the format below(note that this is not currently an available citation type in NoodleBib):\n\n[Subject of photo]. Personal photograph by author. [Date photo was taken].\n\nFor example:\nPescadero Beach at sunset. Personal photograph by author. 18 Aug. 2003.\n\nFreely-available graphics and clip art do not need to be cited or referenced.

Tips for Writing an Argumentative Paper\n\nDr. Dyson’s tips for writing the \nARGUMENTATIVE RESEARCH PAPER\n\n1) By definition, an argumentative paper must have a THESIS. Your goal is to persuade your reader of a particular interpretation, not to describe a subject textbook-style. Be sure that you know and make clear to your reader what your point is. \n2) Avoid colloquialisms and very long paragraphs unless you have some pressing need for them (laziness does not count). \n3) Do not use subject headings: this is an argument, not a textbook. \n4) Do not just plunk down quotations: discuss them. This is important. Though often difficult, analyzing texts is the heart of scholarship. In general, long quotations should not end a paragraph. \n5) Footnote clearly, making it obvious what is your original contribution and what is not. \n6) Include a title page at the beginning and a list of "Works Cited" at the end. \n7) Cite ancient works by parenthetical references within the text, not by footnotes: e.g., (Iliad 10.45-53), (Aen. 6.112-23), (Suet. Aug. 44). Most ancient poetic works have book and line numbers, while most ancient prose works are divided into numbered sections. DO NOT refer to ancient works by page number within the translation unless there is no other way (as when translators, irresponsibly, neglect to give line or section numbers). Be sure to list the translations you use in your "Works Cited." \n8) Number your pages, starting with the first page of the text (not the title page). The length requirement given means text + footnotes; the list of works cited should be numbered but does not count for length (e.g. it would be page 11 of a 10-page paper). Staple the pages once in the upper left-hand corner. Do NOT use a folder. \n9) Indent and single-space quotations longer than 4 lines. \n10) Master The Elements of Style, the best guide to writing English prose. (If nothing else, obey this command: "Do not join independent clauses by a comma." I HATE comma splices.) Treasure this gem from the Introduction: \nVigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell.\n11) On bibliography: in general, \n- A few well-chosen sources are better than many ill-chosen ones. \n- Look first for things published recently and by major presses. \n- Journal articles are the life-blood of scholarship in many fields. Put in your interlibrary loan requests early (expect at least a 2-week delay). \n- Secondary literature should be used to stimulate your thinking and alert you to the issues other scholars have found important. The main focus should be your own analysis of primary evidence.\n12) Read the paper aloud once you have finished. Never write a sentence you would be ashamed to say. And remember, good writing is rewriting what you have already rewritten.\n\nClick this website for more information that might be helpful;\nhttp://home.att.net/~profmulder/ESSAY.htm\n\nTopics for Writing\n\nBioethics ethics in Life Sciences \nAssisted Suicide \nGenetic Research \nComputing Issues the social implications \nIntellectual Property & Piracy \nCybercrime and Privacy \nConstitutional Issues our rights under the Constitution \nGun Control \nThe Death Penalty \nSocial Concerns quality of life \nAnimal Rights\nGambling\nGay Marriages \nEducation Issues our public schools\n         Testing to Improve Educational Standards\n         School Choice - charter schools & vouchers\n         Intercollegiate Athletics and Ethics \n\nI got these suggestions from this website;\nhttp://www.gc.maricopa.edu/English/topicarg.html\nIf you go to this website you can click on the topic you like and get information about that

Why is "The DaVinci Code" not fiction anymore? I missed that announcement...Anyhoo, if you want to hear solid evidence for Christ, I suggest reading The Case For Christ by Lee Strobel. I am reading it right now, so I can't tell you too much about it, but he talks to all sorts of scholars, some Christian Bible Scholars, some atheists like himself. He presents the evidence (eyewitness, documentary, corroborating, rebuttal, scientific, psychological, circumstantial, and fingerprint evidence). I'm still in the chapter about eyewitness evidence, but it is really, really good. Reading this is a great way to get multiple views, so you can choose.

Hi\n\nI think this question has been asked before, however I would suggest you tried Inflight Referencer at http://bibliography.inflightTM.com or http://www.inflightTM.com/ref -Both web addresses take you to the same place.\n\nThere is also software from the APA, however it's quite clunky and not as user friendly. Referencer seems to be the most easiest to use and does a good job of managing your research references, plus it does Harvard and custom styles as well.\n\nGood luck and peace.
