Synopsis

The Writer's Pocket Handbook―is a very brief spiral-bound handbook - an inexpensive, handy, yet complete reference manual for use in composing papers in all disciplines.

Not just a style manual, The Writer's Pocket Handbook begins with "Writing with Purpose," a unique section in a handbook of this size, which provides information on the rhetorical situation in order to contextualize the reference material that follows. Process-oriented, authoritative, practical, filled with instructive, hand-edited examples, including the latest 1998 MLA and 2001 APA recommendations for documenting electronic sources, The Writer's Pocket Handbook is presented in the same clear, accessible, and polished style that has made such a success of Rosa and Eschholz's The Writer's Brief Handbook.
