Negative Positive
Title: Excellent book for already-competent writers
Review: As the product description does not list the contents of the book, I will:Chapters1) Writing and the study of English composition2) Good writing as composition3) Narration and description4) Exposition and argumentation5) Paragraphs6) Sentences and words: style7) Style: correctness8) Style: economy and increment9) Style: pure movement10) Style and composition11) Methods and applicationsThis book is an insightful guide to writers seeking to increase the cohesiveness and progression of their writing. I would not recommend this to someone looking to learn to write, but to someone looking to write more effectively. It pulls together all styles of writing and discusses the elements common to these styles that make writing more effective. The working premise of this book is that effective writing achieves what you wish it to achieve, and that clarity and progression should be a writer's primary concerns.
