Review # 1 was written on 2019-07-08 00:00:00 Harry Watkins Most of this book seemed directed at undergraduates, but the one part that was useful for me was a series of charts that had "commonly used phrases" on one side and "better way to say it" on the other side. There were charts for being more concise, cutting out unnecessary adjectives or adverbs, using stronger verbs, not writing in passive...good stuff.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-01-11 00:00:00 Ryan Van Dyck Here's the thing: this text is bare bones and mostly "just the facts Ma'am"; just the thing for community college or non-English major students. I've found the "Reader" section, which contains real-life essays on topics from immigration to machsimo to defining family, to be a useful supplement for modeling examples of writing topics, strategies, and architecture. Plus, the TOC sports a cross-reference that matches up the categories of the essays in the "Reader" section to the "Rhetoric" section, so I don't have to flog my brain, and, gasp -- do it myself.
