Clear writing is the key to clear thinking. So think what you want to say, then say it as simply as possible. That's the thinking that underpins this much-loved guide, and the mantra for anyone wanting to communicate with the clarity, style and precision for which the economist is renowned. The economist style guide guides the reader through the pleasures and pitfalls of English usage. It offers advice on the consistent use of punctuation, abbreviations and capital letters, identifies common errors and clichés and contains an exhaustive range of reference material - covering everything from business ratios to mathematical symbols and common Latin phrases. It also tackles the key differences between British and American English. Review: Elegant - Daringly done. Very useful. Strongly recommended.

Essential knowledge
Fascinating source of advice for writers. Good common sense. Surprisingly contains several typographical errors - but these may be deliberate just to remind us to be careful

簡にして要を得たスタイルブック
新聞などを発行している出版社はそれぞれ自社のスタイルブックを出している。本書もその一つで初版(1986)から数えて12版になる。3部構成で、第一部は通常の語法辞典を兼ねた「スタイルの本質」(compare to/with など)第2部は「アメリカ英語とイギリス英語」(on/in the street など)第3部は百科事典を兼ねた「有用な参照資料」(歴代の英国の首相一覧など)となっている。andの前のコンマの有無(A, B, C, and D/A, B, C and Dなど)は現状ではどうなんだろうという悩みに答えてくれる有用な書である。
