Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Every day millions of students and professionals face the important task of communicating quantitative information. The book "Classy Stats" is designed to help people accomplish that task more effectively. "Classy Stats" is essentially three books in one. It is a book that will help journali…sts and other writers who want to become better at understanding and communicating statistics. It is a book that will help researchers, analysts and statisticians who want to become better at writing about the results of their analyses. And it is a book that will help anyone who wants to become better at producing basic statistical graphics. Students and professionals who master the principles presented in "Classy Stats" will find themselves more confident when they are "home alone" working on a major statistics-based project. In that type of project, a person is expected to produce, with little or no help, an article, report or presentation that demonstrates professional-level skill in the "Big Three"-numbers, words and graphics. "Classy Stats" shows people in various fields how to avoid missteps in communicating quantitative information, and the book shows people the "best practices" for communicating quantitative information effectively. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. There are hundreds of instances in which two or more words are pronounced alike but are spelled differently-for example, "role" and "roll." In addition, there are hundreds of instances in which two words are pronounced differently but do exhibit some similarity in appearance-for example, "co…mpel" and "impel." Even well-educated people occasionally commit what can be called a "word-choice blunder"-that is, mixing up sound-alike words or similar-looking words. Those blunders can undermine your professional credibility and can embarrass you in social settings. Knowing the "right" word by heart is important. When you compose text on a computer, you cannot depend on a spell-check program to catch mistakes related to sound-alike or similar-looking words. When you forgo a spell-checker or when you hand-write a note, you are on your own. And, when you speak, you are on your own, too, because you need to know the distinctions between similar-sounding words. The book "Spell-Checker Follies" provides guidance on the correct usage of 435 pairs of words-182 sound-alike pairs and 253 similar-looking pairs. "Spell-Checker Follies" is designed to be read cover-to-cover and studied, much like a textbook. The book is divided into 16 units, each four pages long, with the most-common word pairs being addressed in the early units. An index lists the word pairs alphabetically. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "The Pro's English" is designed to be used by professionals in various fields who need to meet the highest standards of word usage. The book will help professional writers and editors and other professionals who write extensively in their work-people such as lawyers, educators, scientists, a…nd analysts in business and government. The book also will help students who aspire to work in writing-intensive fields. "The Pro's English" is not designed to be a comprehensive handbook of American English usage. Instead, the author of "The Pro's English" wanted to produce a book that offers guidance on how to use the everyday words and expressions that can cause trouble for even well-educated writers. The author wanted to produce a concise, well-organized book that could be easily read cover-to-cover and then used as a reference work. The author wanted to produce a book that would be studied-not merely consulted-because a reference work cannot help people who "don't know that they don't know." Also, the author wanted to produce a book that enables people to distinguish between word usage that is inappropriate and word usage that is merely inadvisable, with "inappropriate" referring to usage not accepted by Webster's New World College Dictionary, the official dictionary of The Associated Press. "The Pro's English"contains only 145 pages of text, yet the book addresses about 700 words and expressions. Those words and expressions are not presented in an A-to-Z list. Instead, the book is divided into 10 themed chapters, each of which contains guidance on words and expressions that fit into a particular category. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
