Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Paralegal is a bad career choice I gave this book one star, not because I read the book but because I used to be a paralegal and came across this book when ordering books online in preparation for my career change. I would strongly recommend against any profession in the legal arena unless you want to become an atty. Working for attys is unpleasant to say the least. The hostile environment of a law firm is stressful, and I've seen a few legal secretaries go out on stress leave. Seeing a law staff member cry at work ...

Rating: - Elements of style - Good reference for any writer to keep around When going through this book, it became quite evident how much the english language, both spoken and written, has changed in the past 80-90 years. Still much, if not most, of the content is applicable and it is a very good reference. I would agree with the NY Times when they said, "Buy it, study it, enjoy it..." Rating: - Continues to be the best This book is a wonderful reference for clear and concise writing. It has helped me improved my writing tremendously. One of the reasons why it is so effective is that it gives good examples of bad writing and lets you compare it with the better kind so that you can see the difference between them. The book has been used by many writers in the past, so it gives you the sense that it has truly helped many. see more Browse for similar items by category: Reference - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - General Writing - Reference - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - General Writing - Reference - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - Writing Skills 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - All 4-for-3 Deals Literature - Humanities - New & Used Textbooks - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - Creative Writing & Composition
