Title: Not what the title promises
Product review: This book is more about getting along with the people you work with than about copyediting. The author goes on at length about bolstering an author's ego but devotes only a few pages to the symbols of editing and how they are used. There are few examples or exercises. For those who actually wish to learn about the actual job I recommend Copyediting by Karen Judd or Style and Substance by Mary Stoughton. Both are excellent and contain many exercises and examples.
