The Longman Writer's Bible: The Complete Guide to Writing, Research, and Grammar

This handy and useful guide offers advice in the areas writers most frequently need help: research writing, documentation, the writing process, grammar, punctuation and mechanics. Anson, Schwegler and Muth encourage writers to adjust their writing style according to the needs of their audience and place an emphasis on practical strategies that you can employ immediately in your work. Their unique "Read/Recognize/Revise" approach to grammar demonstrates how to identify errors and provides strategies for avoiding these errors in your own writing.

A complete section of the book offers thorough coverage of how to do research, both in the library and online. Readers will find documentation of all of the important documentary styles-MLA, APA, CMS and CSE-all of which provide the most up-to-date guidelines for citing online sources.
