This review is from: The Economist Style Guide: A Concise Guide for All Your Business Communications (Economist Books) (Hardcover)
The usefulness of this volume will depend both on your targetaudience and on your "native" English (Oxford or American). If you are a scientist writing papers in American English, the book will be of limited value since some of the "no-noes" of the Economist Style Guide (e.g. writing in the passive voice) are accepted conventions of the genre, and some of the usage recommendations are specific to Oxford English. By the same token, the volume will be quite helpful when writing documents addressing a general audience in the UK, Canada, or "down under".

A useful reference, well written of course, a bit humourous in spots, authoritative. Recommended.
