The Business Style Handbook, Second Edition: An A-to-Z Guide for Effective Writing on the Job

This book is mostly an alphabetically arranged list of terms and how to use them in business writing. I didn't find it to be very useful for my purposes (teaching a business writing course). Also, the information was more specific than I expected - it mostly tells you how to use and punctuate specific terms you might use in business writing. This book is fine as a reference to consult when you're not sure what a word means or how to write it. Just not what I was looking for.

This is an easy read! I am reading this book for a class. I have not completed the book, but I like it so far.

I'm so glad this book has been updated due to the fact that my position in university administration entails extensive writing. I've been using it for years to resolve questions that come up when I write. Now the second edition includes lots of new information that is relevant for writing in business. I found the chapter on email to be especially helpful.

I am an administrative assistant and do a lot of typing. This is a great resource for me to have at my desk.

I love this book. I have gained great knowledge reading it and plan to share the learned experience with others..

Gave it as a gift...

I needed it for school so...

Not as informative as I wanted. More like a dictionary than a directive on writing styles

Wasn't quite sure of its actual value but it was interesting!
