　　Enrolling in a university is a big challenge. The passage to university culture and its requirements can be difficult and abrupt for those who have not developed efficient learning strategies and study skills. The book Academic Study Skills: An Introduction aims at smoothing this passage for non-native students of English who want to develop and improve the skills needed for English medium study at university level.
