4.0 out of 5 stars
A good read, February 21, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: The English Language: An Owner's Manual (Paperback)
It isn't dry, which makes most other texts so laborious to go through & study. It had to be planned this way because it was well thought out in this manner. This is not only a text on language and/or grammar - it's also insightful on psychology, sociology & philosophy. It purposefully has thought-provoking exercises throughout. This text was used in my English grammar class. It was lent to me so that I didn't have to buy it new (lots of expense on texts at the beginning of semesters)- but I couldn't find anyone willing to sell theirs(here)-they all wanted to keep their copy. To me that says alot, there are a lot of textbooks that you see that are resold & resold after the semesters are over, but this book wasn't ever included the timeS I was looking for it.
