Even the most published writers rave about this book which provides the reader with an extensive listing of dos and don'ts for writing. They also provide the 100 most commonly misused words, some of which people think are words but really are not according to grammar and style. It may not be the most interesting read but before I write another major research project, this is the first thing I pick up. The tips and guides in this thin book will considerably improve your writing style and prose. Trust me, your readers will be happy you bought this book.
