About the Book

Some acclaim for previous editions:

-- "The Boston Globe"

-- "The Wall Street Journal"

"The book remains a nonpareil: direct, correct, and delightful."
-- "The New Yorker"

." . . Should be the daily companion of anyone who writes for a living, and for that matter, anyone who writes at all."

"This excellent book, which should go off to college with every freshman, is recognized as the best book of its kind we have."
-- "St. Paul Dispatch - Pioneer Press

"It's hard to imagine an engineer or a manager who doesn't need to express himself in English prose as part of his job. It's also hard to imagine a writer who will not be improved by a liberal application of "The Elements of Style.""
-- "Telephone Engineer & Management"
