It may not be a crime against humanity that this book is out of print but it is a major inconvenience! I paid $18 for a paperback copy (imported, 63 SMALL pages (4 by 7 or so)) but STILL felt it was worth it. Some academic publisher could do the world of social science writing a real service by re-publishing it. Some "guideposts" (actually chapter headings give the flavor: BE THOU CLEAR; FLUENCY CAN BE ACHIEVED BY GRIT; PARAGRAPHS SHOULS HAVE POINTS;FOOTNOTES ARE NESTS FOR PEDANTS; BE CONCRETE; BE PLAIN. My advice: READ IT (if you can find it!)

I am an economist, and it has been a decade or more since I have written for publication. Mostly I do reports for clients. I am in the process of writing a book based on a career-life of research and needed a guide to help me get back into the style of writing that is acceptable in the field of economics. This book has refreshed my memory of the economic-writing style and has provides a couple of tips that are extremely helpful. I highly recommend it.

This is one of the best written books I have ever read. Great advice with good humor. I highly recommend it!
