Schaum's Easy Outline of Writing and Grammar,   ISBN:9780071372077

Customer Rating: 

This is a good book for quick review of grammar and the writing process. It is a crash course requiring minimum learning time, with tips for mastering the writing process. Anybody short of time, and studying for an English exam should read this book. Good value for money.

Customer Rating: 

If time is a premium (and when isn't it for a student?) this is the book to get. Clear, concise, and to the point. It is student friendly, and definitely gives you what you need to know to pass the course. 'Two thumbs way up!'

Customer Rating: 

I see someone is offering a "collectible" edition of this book for over $13 (as of April 2002); it is also advertised as being the "UK" edition. This is a book of American grammar--there *is* no UK edition. There isn't any special "collectible" version either--it doesn't come in hardcover, it doesn't come signed by the authors, it doesn't come with an audio tape, it doesn't come with a workbook, it doesn't come with pop-up pictures of the sentence parts. As one of the authors, I know! So if you want a copy, get one of the "normal" ones at the normal price.

P.S. I would have submitted this review w/out stars, but that wasn't an option. So of course I picked 5!
