1.	[no image]	The Elements of Style from The Macmillan Company Customer Review: I started to get down to the book based on personal recommendation. My professor told me that this book is a must-read and will help us go down to the same path he did. I wanna break the norm that scientists can't write well. This awesome book was originally written by Willim Strunk Jr, in... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Without Fail (Jack Reacher, No. 6) from Berkley Trade Price: $7.25 Customer Review: WITHOUT FAIL is the sixth book in the Jack Reacher series and as with most series let me say up front it is best to read them in order.

4.		Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing (Quick & Dirty Tips) from Holt Paperbacks Price: $5.00 Customer Review: This is a fun and easy-to-read manual.

5.		Mla Handbook for Writers of Research Papers from Sagebrush Education Resources Price: $17.98 Customer Review: The book is ok, but it's poor when it comes to web references. It covers web citations, but shows no examples of web quotes. This is a prolific problem everywhere. Try looking up web quote examples, and you only get citation examples. Very frustrating and I feel that my money wasn't wisely spent... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


6.		Eats, Shoots & Leaves from Penguin Audio Price: $8.75 Customer Review: Punctuation as Delight Lynn Truss is a bright and charming writer.

7.		A Rulebook for Arguments from Hackett Pub Co Price: $7.17 Customer Review: "A Rulebook for Beginners" is made up of 45 discrete rules which have been categorised into nine chapters of general arguing techniques.

16.		How to Write a Lot: A Practical Guide to Productive Academic Writing from American Psychological Association (APA) Price: $8.87 Customer Review: This was an entertaining piece, and was easy to read through quickly. The first two or so chapters are the best, and I started to lose interest when getting into the author's personal opinions on punctuation. But overall, I'd recommend it to anyone trying to write a journal article or dissertation.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


17.		"They Say / I Say": The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing (Second Edition) from W. W. Norton & Company Price: $13.37 Customer Review: I wish I had this title just before starting college--my reading and writing skills would have been more engaging and fulfilling.

18.		Woe Is I: The Grammarphobe's Guide to Better English in Plain English from Riverhead Trade Price: $3.39 Customer Review: Many of the Amazon reviewers said this book is valuable for both novices and experienced professionals, and it's funny to boot. I read four chapters and put the book aside.

19.		100 Ways to Improve Your Writing (Mentor) from Signet Price: $3.09 Customer Review: "101 habits..." by McAleer is a more foundational resource and a good alternative for people at this earlier level.
