Book Description

May 1, 1998
What key words will help you sell a product or settle a negotiation? What are the best strategies for overcoming writer's block? Which cliches will make your readers yawn? What are the defamatory or negative words that could land you in hot water? From the basics of spelling and grammar, to subtle techniques for arousing readers' interest, to tips on editing and designing documents, to e-mail do's and don'ts, this comprehensive reference tool is a must for anyone who writes at work.

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Business and reference book author Mary A. DeVries has created an extensive but easy-to-use resource for all types of corporate communications in The Business Writer's Book of Lists. Comprised entirely of 80 different listings that are designed to be scanned quickly for either general guidance or specific data, it dispenses with irrelevant chatter and gets right to the heart of the matter on key areas including message creation, word choice, and business English. Solid help on such critical matters as arousing reader interest, avoiding jargon and idioms, and spelling compound words correctly is also offered in this logical format. --Howard Rothman
