As I already explained, in an ebay review, the content is fine, but for over $50, even knowing it was used (but in 'good condition'), I expected the cover to look a little bit less like it had spent some time at the town dump. It was quite dirty.
I just finished teaching a class on writing to a bunch of county planners, who write for a living. I found the content of the book very appropriate to help these planners understand the need for them to use a consistent writing style and preferably a good style guide, such as the Gregg Reference Manual.
