EDITORIAL REVIEW

The Modern Language Association (MLA) has established a complete handbook for writing research papers. Dubbed by Newsweek magazine as the style bible for most college students, this guidebook is required by many academic institutions throughout the United States and the world. The MLA Handbook for Writers of Research Papers (7th Edition) is an accepted format used by many academic and nonacademic institutions and publications. However, this highly regarded manual is not specifically geared toward scholarly academic writing...especially term papers. The authors of this book draw information from the manual that is specific to academic writing and expand upon it using document set-up instructions and a sample paper. The end result of this transformational process yields a useful guide that can be used along with the actual manual for successful academic writing. This book clarifies many detailed specifications of MLA style. Frequently used aspects of MLA style, citation, and referencing are addressed in a simple format that allows researchers to focus on content instead of mechanics and style. Quite simply, MLA: The Easy Way! presents the basics of MLA style in a clear, concise, accurate, and easy-to-navigate package. Try it, and immediately relieve some of the stress of writing a research paper.

The best choice is buy the original MLA last edition. This is just to know the format of an essay. If u want moré information buy another book.

Usefulness of book?

I have purchased this book based on the reviews but do not find it as useful as other books I have viewed. It does not contain all the listings I am looking for, e.g. citing a lecturer. I was hoping this would be a quick look-up for different kinds of books and articles, but I am disappointed.

Everyone should have this book...

This book has been an incredible asset to me. I do not have to go through every page of the official manual to get my questions answered. I simply look at the index and go to the appropriate page. This book has saved me hours worth of time searching through the cumbersome manual. It's a must for all those required to utilize the MLA writing style.

Great Resource!

This book is excellent for anyone utilizing the MLA writing style format. It is a condensed format of the official manual...it even provides a way to set up the computer for proper formatting! I would highly recoommend this to anyone who might be required to use the MLA format. Thank you very much for making my life with MLA easier!!!
