Descrizione articolo

Riassunto:

In America today college professors cringe at the lack of writing skills displayed by their students, business leaders bemoan poor communicative skills among their employees, and people themselves recognize that they (and their children) have a problem and want to do something about it. This inviting book introduces readers anew to the eight parts of speech and common grammatical problems -- such as the case of pronouns depicted in the book's title, the tension between nouns and verbs, the controversy of the active vs. passive voice, and the power of a verb-based style. Then equipped with a knowledge of the parts of speech and the power of the verb form, Good presents his theory of style and the craft of sentences -- including those important marks of punctuation.

REVIEWS

"What fun! Here's a book that is easy-to-understand, full of clear and concrete examples of usage, and just plain entertaining to read. I never thought I'd say that about a grammar book…. From the first page of the preface, where the author explains why he wrote this book, I was hooked. As a matter of fact, as I was reading the preface, my husband wanted to know why I was laughing…. This book would work well as a grammar course for a high school student or as a reference for a parent who needs to brush up on grammar skills before teaching grammar….I definitely recommend this book. I learned a great deal in the reading, and it is on my list of must-reads for my high school student. After she's done with it, it'll go on the shelf for future reference. As you can see, it is a useful book." -- Jean Hall, The Eclectic Homeschool Online
