1.		The Copyeditor's Handbook: A Guide for Book Publishing and Corporate Communications from University of California Press Price: $14.88 Customer Review: This book has been useful on so many fronts. The tone is much more conversational than the Chicago Manual, material is easier to find and explained at greater length (especially the incredibly helpful discussion of comma usage), and the exercises it contains are invaluable for beginning copyeditors... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


2.		The Subversive Copy Editor: Advice from Chicago (or, How to Negotiate Good Relationships with Your Writers, Your Colleagues, and Yourself) (Chicago Guides to Writing, Editing, and Publishing) from University Of Chicago Press Price: $7.66 Customer Review: This is a nice little book for editors and writers alike. It accurately discusses many of the dynamics in that relationship, and offers good advice for dealing with them. Written in a very readable, enjoyable way.

3.		The Chicago Manual of Style from University Of Chicago Press Price: $34.64 Customer Review: The only aspect missing for my doctoral dissertation was the bibliography, which is something very boring and time-consuming. I purchased the Chicago Manual from Amazon.com, and as soon as I received it, started working on said bibliography. In just two days I finished 18 pages of entries using the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


4.		Copyediting: A Practical Guide from Crisp Learning Price: $14.24 Customer Review: What makes copyediting so complex is that the English language is a knotty monster. And for the most part, the reference books that try to tackle and untangle said language are fairly thick and complex tomes. Let's say you are preparing to interview for an editing job. Chance is good that, if... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


5.		The Careful Writer from Free Press Price: $13.23 Customer Review: Not only did I learn most of what I know about writing from Bernstein, I use it in all my editing. When I have to explain why one construction or punctuation is better than another, I pull out The Careful Writer and quote directly from it. I've yet to have a writer challenge the master -- perhaps... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 11th Edition thumb-notched with Win/Mac CD-ROM and Online Subscription from Merriam-Webster Price: $10.78 Customer Review: The only way to search this dictionary is by location. Now you would think that "location" would include typing a letter or letters! However, what it means is typing in a numerical value that is somewhere between zero and a very big number! There is a slide-bar option that gets you "close" and by... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


7.		Copyediting & Proofreading For Dummies from For Dummies Price: $11.09 Customer Review: I've been a proofreader for several years, and recently decided to take the leap into copyediting. The information presented in this book is useful, however, it is a little difficult to take this publication seriously, as the typographical errors are shameful. On page 101, for instance, the author... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		The McGraw-Hill Desk Reference for Editors, Writers, and Proofreaders(with CD-ROM) from McGraw-Hill Price: $13.30 Customer Review: There is absolutely nothing wrong with this product. It covers the material it says it will cover, so for that I was pleased at the very least. My expectations were simply a bit higher than what I received. The CD-ROM that is included does provide some forms and other useful items. Overall I would... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		McGraw-Hill's Proofreading Handbook from McGraw-Hill Price: $8.66 Customer Review: I have found this book to be very helpful as I start up my business, "Tilden Editing Services." There was a lot of printing/ publishing history; that is, words we use which just don't mean what they did years ago. (Like "print," "galley," and many others. Once I got past the history, I found a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		Merriam-Webster's Dictionary of English Usage from Merriam-Webster Price: $14.39 Customer Review: People who criticise this book tend to forget the dimensions to language surpassing mere grammaticality. To give just one example, there are far too many grammar books offering advice quite unrelated to the domain of grammar. All too often you will have an author warning against something solely on... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
