Little, Brown Handbook

I ordered the Little Brown Handbook 10th edition and what I got was a useless copy of the Little Brown Handbook 2nd edition. I will never buy from this seller again and will question whether to buy from Amazon.

Everything was perfect it was exactly what i expected. i use this book for school so it is required reading but it is very helpful and informative with plenty of examples

although, it wasn't as fast as i wanted to be shipped to me, it was in very good condition! i would definitely trust the seller!

This book has everything I need to know and more concerning writing styles (APA, MLA and etc.), syntax, punctuation, composition and more. Great reference book when writing anything.

It's difficult to write a review on a textbook without accidentally reviewing your class as well. We barely used this book, and class is almost over.

I don't understand why a book called brown is actually blue, but ok. I loved the price here at Amazon for this book, Amazon's NEW price was only $5 higher than buying it used at any of my local used book stores.

The size (dimensions) of the book is convenient. Not too big to haul around all the time, but the print is small and I think with all the textbooks we have to put up with all the time, our eyes start bugging out. Do they really need to cram all the material in such a small space? I appreciate the lighter load, but upping the font one point can make a world of difference. All in all, the book is sturdy, and it's laid out fairly well, making it not too difficult to find what you are looking for, so that is a plus. The paper is slightly slick, without too much glare, for anyone who ever studies outside between classes, you will appreciate this.

The kinds of questions the book has are really stupid, and with no way to evaluate your own work, you have no clue before you turn in your assignment if you are on the right track or not. I consider that a huge minus. Another huge negative if your teacher is like mine and gives all the assignments and doesn't grade them or even look at them until the end of the term.

I do not think I am really qualified to evaluate the contents of the book, regarding grammar, english rules, etc, since that lack of knowledge is why I am taking the class in the first place, however, it seems to cover a huge range of rules that I never learned before and I will not be reselling it to the used book store. I will keep it as a reference tool for all the classes and reports I will have to do over the next three years.
