From the Back Cover
Praise for You Send Me:
"I love e-mail, but my love for it would run even deeper if everyone followed the sound advice given here by Patricia T. O'Conner and Stewart Kellerman. Then, too, their concise, lively writing in this book demonstrates the virtues they preach. If more people did as O'Conner and Kellerman say and did as they do, the world of words would be a better place."
-- Barbara Wallraff, author of Word Court
"Before you click "Send," read You Send Me. With common sense and
uncommon humor, O'Conner and Kellerman show you how to accomplish the
most important task you'll ever attempt on a computer: communicating
with other people." --David Feldman, author of the Imponderables® books
"Pat O'Conner has been a consistently keen observer of the ways our language is changing. With this book she and Stewart Kellerman make it clear that the future of English (God help us) is in e-mail." --Leonard Lopate, talk show host, WNYC
"A lively and articulate guide to taking full advantage of the greatest thing to happen to communication since the invention of print." -- Richard Lederer, author of The Write Way
