Description

This text addresses common errors found most often in first drafts of business, science, and technical papers. The workbook and reference guide describe principles of style and format, and give practical advice on clean, clear and concise writing. The volume is divided into eight parts and each part includes a set of problem sentences containing the mistakes, a set of solutions (revisions of the problem sentences) and a brief lesson on each problem, with additional examples. Chapters cover problems and remedies for words, verbs, phrases, sentences, links, grammar, punctuation and style. The book concludes with appendices of software tools for writers, a glossary of grammar temrs and a resource list of books about writing.
