Summary: No More Turgid Prose
Review: An easy to read, extremely useful guide to effective business writing and "written business etiquette." The guidance relating to computer/email communications is particularly valuable, and should be read by anyone who communicates regularly on-line. I plan to order copies of the book for all my senior reports.

Summary: A Communications Handbook for Managers
Review: If Strunk and White had gone to business school, this is the book they would have written. It's an antidote to the interminable memo, the pointless presentation, and the endless e-mail.

Summary: Elements of Style for MBAs
Review: This expanded version of an earlier edition of two seasoned advertising executive' original writing guide is something like Elements of Style, but aimed squarely at someone writing for business purposes (e.g., one of the ten chapters is "Asking for Money". There is a useful afterword describing a dozen more books to help you write better. Recommended as a good starting point for any business person wanting to write more effectively.

Summary: A book on writing that works
Review: This is a concise, relevant, topical, well written book on writing. It covers all the areas important to the younger generation, e-mail, resumes, letters etc. Unfortunately, many have not been drilled in the discipline of the written expression of the English language. As an educator and dean I see this all the time. People not only express themselves breaking the rules of grammar, but verbosely. The authors are to be congratulated on their contribution to the culture. I am sure they would be able to spruce up my review!
