Synopsis :

Style: The Basics of Clarity and Grace retains the wisdom and clear authorial voice of Williams best-selling book, Style, while streamlining every chapter to create a very brief, yet powerfully direct guide to writing with style.

The brevity of words and clarity of expression make this book a quick and ideal read for freshman composition courses, as well as for writing courses across the disciplines. Style: The Basics of Clarity and Grace covers the elemental principles of writing that will help students diagnose their prose quickly and revise it effectively. The four sections―Style as Choice, Clarity, Grace, and Ethics―feature principles of effective prose, written in William's hallmark conversational style. As in Style, Seventh Edition, these principles are offered as reason-based approaches to improving prose, rather than as hard and fast rules to writing well.

À propos de l'auteur:

Joseph M. Williams is a leading scholar in the discipline of composition.
