Synopsis
This volume looks at how to write well at work and get results. The emphasis is on how to write documents for a purpose, and follows the guidelines of the Better English campaign closely. The book divides into two halves: a manual and a reference book to support it, each cross-referenced for ease of application. It is intended as a comprehensive, practical, on-the-desk guide which addresses the needs of a changing workforce, as people are called upon to produce documents themselves, rather than leave them for administrative staff, and as the need for clearer, action-centred communication becomes yet more urgent. The main points covered are: the focusing process - thinking, planning, creating, editing, using technology (PCs, WPs, dictating); analyzing the readership; displaying including layout (choice of fonts); managing others' writing - conforming to corporate style, developing others' skill and confidence and producing an in-house style guide; parts of speech; the finer points of punctuation; bones of grammatical contention; words of warning; and improving spelling.
There are also worked examples, reader activities and appendices on parts of speech, sentences and how they work and common grammatical errors."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
