I was very pleased with the way this purchase was handled from start to finish.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to copyediting   November 8, 2008
This is a careful, methodical, and yet quite entertaining introduction to the basic skills of copyediting. Each chapter introduces a new element and ends with exercises to reinforce and test your knowledge. The glossary at the end of the book is also a useful reference, particularly in refreshing your knowledge of grammar.


4 out of 5 stars The Communicator's Library   December 21, 2008
The Copyeditor's Handbook was purchased to supplement The Chicago Manual of Style, The Associated Press Stylebook, The Elements of Style, and Fowler's Modern English Usage. Not only does it give tons of information for writers and communicators of all levels, but it also allows one to fine-tune their skills with exercises. Well worth it! I learn something new each time I pick it up!

The book took quite a bit longer to arrive than I anticipated, but it is in great shape.
