Title: Have recommended for 25 years
Review: I have been recommending this book since its first edition, published in 1976. Part 1, which runs 40 or 50 pages or so, is the best short course in clear, effective writing I have ever seen. The book is worth the price just for those pages alone. The book has grown larger with each edition, but those first chapters remain unsurpassed. Supplement it with Strunk & White's The Elements of Style (or vice versa).
Is the review positive or negative?
