Review

"Monad Trainer's Aide has always been a strong advocate of the Crisp Fifty-Minute Series. We find the content to be exceptionally useful and effective. As a standalone learning experience or accompanied with videos, the Crisp Series frequently satisfies all of our clients' training requirements. Their extensive list of titles along with low pricing, makes the Crisp Fifty-Minute Series required reading in any training or educational program."

3.0 out of 5 stars Proofreading skills, April 12, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Crisp: Powerful Proofreading Skills: Tips, Techniques, and Tactics (Paperback)
Although this book will be helpful to the beginning proofreader, it may not be of use for advanced proofreading. It may help you write better letters, but it's not for the professional proofreader. It does include workbook sections, proofreaders' marks and proofreading strategies.
