520 | _aThis new edition retains the hallmarks of its predecessors: brevity, accessibility, and practicality at an economical price. The Guide to Rapid Revision gives students immediate answers to specific problems, offers sufficient information to solve them, and does so with extreme brevity and clarity. With a table of correction symbols that doubles as a table of contents, and extensive cross-referencing, students can easily find answers to specific problems or grammatical queries. Instructors can use the added, topically organized table of contents as an aid to focusing on certain topics (such as punctuation) during the semester. The book is alphabetized according to common correction symbols, setting it apart from all other handbooks that are designed to help students in revising. | ||
