Useful for All Writers, Not Just Students

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

I recommend this for any writers who want to improve their skills. It helped me with using the active voice, and avoiding vague words and cliches. I liked the section with different essay forms (personal, persuasive, how-to, compare/contrast, cause/effect, and problem/solution). It shows an example of each and then a revision so you can see how the rewriting improved it. This would be a good review for anyone starting a blog or writing for a website like eHow.

Great Book!!!

I was lucky to find this book to improve upon my skills for GRE's analytical writing section (introduced as of october 2002). The author describes effective writing techniques by recommending a set of rules & showing instances of each of them in action. The examples provided would be most useful to a reader because it shows what to avoid & how to rewrite sentences more effectively.
