First, my hardback version came poorly bound and the pages are likely to begin falling out soon. Second, the book indeed presents some good grammar rules, but it is rather simplistic overall (i.e., 8th grade like), so do not expect anything too great or cool grammar constructions to impress your peers. Lastly, I found several grammar problems in the text itself (e.g., on page 90 it states "These [should be there] is essentially no difference in meaning between these pairs of sentences"), which is quite shocking for a grammar book!
I have wanted to replace these books. I think they are essential in helping you write any and everything.
This product will be of assistance to anyone who is writing articles,books or even just business letters. It has been a great help to me.
The 3 books I've recently purchased via Amazon are far too old. I feel taken advantage of. Henceforth, I shall be buying books on line only from sellers who furnish the copyright & latest revision dates.
I recommend Grammatically Correct to every writer I know. It's unparalleled for its range of topics and ease of use. Use it as a reference book to look up proper punctuation or read it cover to cover for a thorough grounding in writing rules. Stilman is easy to understand and provides plenty of examples. My hardcover copy is flagged with post-it notes, marked with yellow highlighter, and heavy with paper clips. Grammatically Correct is my first choice when I need to check punctuation, grammar, or word usage. A recommended book for any serious writer, the not-so-serious writer, and anyone looking for a complete reference source in one book. Buy this one for the writer in your life. Especially if that writer is you. SIMILAR ITEMS: |
