| If
you want to be sure, as a student, or in your business or personal
life, that your written English is correct and up-to-date, this
book is for you. Vera Hughes' aim is to help you remember the
basic rules of spelling, grammar and punctuation. 'Noun', 'verb',
'subject', 'object' and 'adjective' are the only technical terms
used. The book teaches the clear, accurate English required
by the business and office world, coaching in acceptable current
usage, and making the rules easier to remember. |
| The
book can be used in three ways:
- Work through it from the beginning to improve your skills
all round.
- Check specific points - apostrophes or colons, for example
- by referring to the relevant section.
- Use any of the 48 Practice sections as revision. |
| The
extensive Exercise and Practice sections include topics such
as IT, a radio script, a letter of condolence and a speech about
litter in the park, as well as the normal letters, faxes and
reports found in any business. |
