Title: Useful manual
Product review: I got this book to help me write more effectively in my dissertation, but I think the material would be useful for many different types of writing. The book does an excellent job of providing both general and specific advice on self-editing, with the overall goal of developing a more concise writing style. The suggestions are not simply stated however, and the pages are filled with many examples of how to implement the improvements.
