An excellent reference book

An excellent reference book for writers, those studying for an English CLEP, or to help all grade levels with English assignments. This book contains information on essay, business and research writing. And it helps you to understand the mechanics of grammar, sentence & paragraph structure, punctuation, etc..

An Excellent Reference Tool

I am a community college English instructor. I have used this handbook in my classes from the 3rd edition to the new 5th edition. I find that it is an extremely useful, well organized, and useful guide for students in all levels of composition courses (pre-college through college sophmore level) and for students writing reports or research papers in other disciplines as well. I highly recommend the text.

Poor Organization Disguises Excellent Material
|
|
I am a Nashville-based technical writer. In an attempt to maintain the grammar side of my job, I pulled out my copy of this book. I have been reading it--cover to cover. I purchased this book while working on my graduate degree a few semesters ago, but it was so poorly organized that I placed this it in my desk. Since digging into it, I discovered pages upon pages of valuable information. If the publishers put a little more time into the organization and "user-friendliness" of this book, what a treasure it would be!
