Great teaching guide!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Editorial Eye (Hardcover)
I used this book in my editing class, and it's really easy to understand. It takes difficult concepts and explains them in a way that students can understand. At the end of each chapter there is a check list for students to use while reading articles. This check list reminds students to look for certain errors in the article. I will keep this book throughout my career as a journalist. I heard this book is going to be updated soon. Buy this book!
