This is a pocket-sized,
information-packed and entertaining guide that has been compiled on the
basis of long experience in helping people produce documents written in
good English, with the underlying message that simple English is the
best English. "What not to Write" deals with all those awkward issues -
acronyms, ambiguity, American-English, bureaucratese, business English,
captions, cliches, grammar, hyphens, jargon, punctuation, quotations,
sexist writing, spelling, writing letters and much, much more. Writing
English should be a pleasure and although there are rules and
conventions, as this book shows, they should be used as a foundation on
which to build the confidence to explore the richness and versatility of
the language and to put the message across, clearly and simply, in a
way that will capture the reader's attention. This handy reference book
will be a vital tool for anyone working with the written word,
particularly those who write client/company reports, theses,
professional papers - students and professionals alike will benefit from
having a copy to hand.
