Customer Reviews

Still using Writer's Inc. after 9 years!

This book served me well through high school, college, my first job as a newspaper reporter, and also as a content writer for an Internet integrator. Highly recommended. I believe all schools should do what my high school did with this book: but a copy for every student to keep forever. It is an invaluable resource, with the right approach, and a little attitude.Fun, witty, smart, direct, and simply the best reference book I've ever owned, Writer's Inc. is exceptional not only for its utility, but also its content. Writer's Inc. is not only a grammar guide and reference, but addresses the THINKING and LEARNING processes in a way that most schools fail to do directly.Read this book. Keep it on your shelf all through school, college, a career, and the rest of your life after this and you will have a richer mind for it.

Best resource guide for young people in school--EXCELLENT!

As an English teacher, this is the best resource guide for young people in high school and college. I recommend this resource for anyone who must write a variety of compositions. It includes both APA and MLA styles as well as other helpful information.

Great Resource

I first used this book in high school and now that I am a teacher, I still have my book and am now introducing it to my students. It is a great book to access information on writing, thinking and understanding subject matter in general. It is so easy to understand and and reference from. Anything from writing resumes to plantet info.

An great book for all high schoolers!

My english teacher had a set of these books in her room, and we all loved them so much some of us bought our own copies! They are useful in all subjects because not only does it have grammer and spelling help, but it has a periodic table, maps and other great resources. The best part is that it is written with a teen in mind and is easy to use with a good sense of humour! A great book!
