5 out of 5 stars Concise & User-Friendly!   March 7, 2006
 13 out of 13 found this review helpful

This handbook is ideal for those who want a quick refresher OR an easy introduction to and user guidelines for APA style writing. Sample citations and reference pages assist the reader with examples to follow. Current information is provided on how to document electronic/on-line sources as well.



2 out of 5 stars Not really necessary   January 30, 2007
 12 out of 13 found this review helpful

I've used APA all through college and quite successfully. Now that I'm in my senior year this book was required for a class. The book is completely unnecessary. A simple google search of "APA format" will lead you to the Purdue University website that covers everything in this book and for free. There are so many websites available for assistance with APA that I wouldn't recommend bothering with a book.


5 out of 5 stars Small is better!   August 1, 2007
 7 out of 7 found this review helpful

A few months ago I started online courses and was introduced to APA formatting which I had no prior understanding of. Instead of relying on information that instructors might provide, I decided to invest in a few books of my own. I purchased APA: The Easy Way! and also the actual APA Manual. APA: The Easy Way! is small, fits just about anywhere, and easily lays out the information needed to complete a paper and a reference list. I would recommend this book over the actual APA Manual. Both my mom and I find this book extremely helpful that we had ordered another one!

Fabulous, Incredibly Easy, and Precise! Someone stole mine so I am having to purchase another. Don't go to Grad School without it!
