Synopsis

What you say is important--but so is how you say it.

If you're not satisfied with what your English says about you, test your problem areas with this popular, remarkably effective handbook. Each of the thirty short chapters zeroes in on a different aspect of grammar, usage, spelling, and pronunciation, with challenging and often amusing exercises to help you monitor your daily progress. Your vital communication skills can improve dramatically, in just fifteen minutes a day, with Thirty Days to Better English.
