Indispensable tool March 21, 2004 F. Paolini (UK/Italy) 12 out of 14 found this review helpful
I found this book particularly good; it is written in a very clear and succint way and highlights the everyday's mistakes that students (but not only) are falling foul.Some people say that spelling and grammar are not the most important factors when writing academic papers, essays, dissertations, reports, projects and so forth.... Ok....tutors looks mainly for your understanding of the course material. But he/she won't be at all impress if you use the apostrophe incorrectly or if you repeatedly making gross grammar mistakes. That is why I think that, as a foreign student studying in English, this book has been a great help in improving and polishing my writing skills. Top marks!!
Writing - that easy? March 25, 2003 Miss E J Bustard (Portadown, N.Ireland) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Writing well is not an easy task! A lecturer recommended this book to me four years ago. Struggling to write my final year dissertation I bought it, hoping it would help. It is very useful. The book is user-friendly and can be read quickly; it is also divided into sections for quick reference with a grammar section at the back. It explains basic concepts such as 'how to write a good sentence', and highlights the common errors students make. It shows how a little editing can dramatically improve a student's work. It will help your writing immensely, I only regret I didn't buy it sooner!
