learn how to write essays and Expository Prose

All the works in the collection published here are written with a writing style called expository prose.

The sole function of expository prose is to describe, expose, explain, define, and disseminate objective or subjective factual information—to bring accurate and correct knowledge to light. It's a mode for writing prose that authors employ when their primary objective is to inform, explain, describe, or define a single subject to a reader.

Expository prose writing is a linguistic discipline that plays a key role in social, personal, business, private, and scientific affairs; it pervades virtually all aspects of professional and everyday life. Regardless of nationality or language, almost everyone who has learned how to read or write regularly reads or writes expository prose; it's universal.

Why is it one of the most important kinds of writing there is? How did the expository prose writing style come to be? What is the nature of expository prose and how can you become better at writing or reading it?
