Education Reference
The Careful Writer is a concise yet thorough handbook, covering in more than 2,000 alphabetized entries the problems that give (or should give) a writer pause before he sets words to paper: questions of use, meaning, grammar, punctuation, precision, logical structure, and color. It is perhaps the liveliest and most entertaining reference work for writers of our time - delighting while it instructs, amusing even as it scolds and cajoles the reader into skillful, persuasive, and vivid writing.
