Synopsis
For Freshman-level writing courses, such as Freshman Composition, English Composition, First-Year Writing, Expository Writing or any course where students need help with grammar, research and documentation. The easiest handbook to use. Muriel Harris was the director of the Purdue Writing Center where she worked elbow-to-elbow with students and for over twenty-five years. As she worked with students, she realized that they asked the same questions over and over. Based on her experience with thousands of students in the writing center, Muriel Harris authored this spiral-bound, tabbed and brief handbook. Her unique feature, "Compare and Correct," and "Question and Correct," allows students to find what they need to help themselves with their writing, without needing to know the terms of grammar. Muriel Harris' Prentice Hall Reference Guide is the easiest handbook for students and instructors to use., Based on the authors' 25 years of writing centre experience, this spiral-bound, tabbed and brief handbook is the easiest for students and instructors to use. Guides students to the information they need. Helps writers locate the section of the book they need, even if they don't know the rules of grammar.

    Just recieved my items today! Everything is exactly as pictured and packaged VERY well, but unfortunately the fridge handle broke. I know it was NOT the sellers fault at all, it was the shipping company, so i am completely satisfied with my purchase and the seller! The seller was very communicative, shipped my order quickly and took every precaution to ensure it arrived to me safely.

    Very concise, yet easy to use.

    Very concise, yet easy to use. It is tabbed, Has a detailed TOC and a complete index. It is new enough to be pertinent, but just old enough that there aren't any tabs for political correctness or wokeness. I have had mine for years. I have been helping out a friend by proofreading his manuscript. When he questioned some of my corrections, I felt the need to reference "The Rules". As I was reminded of the usefulness of the book, I purchased this copy for him. He asked that I leave a five star review. He said book was brand new and in original wrap. It was also packaged very well. He has it on his desk and uses it nearly every day.
