Title: The NECESSARY One
Review: Brian A. Garners', A Dictionary of Modern American Usage is the one most necessary book of its type I've found for writers, teachers - especially English and Writing teachers - and all those who think themselves educated. Keep your Fowler's, Flesch, and Strunk & White, of course, But READ this, employ it.Every serious student needs this book. Why? Because this book is far better than any other I've found to clarify, discern, and guide the foundational thinking behind one's written words.Mr. Garner is, if not a philosopher, an honest, discerning, and well-rounded thinker. He brings into clear focus many of the problems of writing effectively in English.Is this the sort of book that seems too opaque and technical for your needs? Just read his argument in the Preface. You can become a better thinker, a better writer, a better person with the use of this book.
