Recenzii

"This is the perfect reference for an international audience. In addition, this is a text that one would want on his or her shelf as an undergraduate, through graduate school, and into one’s professional career."
—William Magrino, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, New Brunswick, USA
"… provides many good examples (with errors and with corrections), covers some of the most common errors, and employs a design throughout, making it easy for readers to review the information quickly."
—Dan Jones, University of Central Florida, Orlando, USA
"... useful for beginner non-native English writers, such as international graduate students. ... covers many of the most common mistakes made by beginner writers."
—Agung Julius, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York, USA
