5.0 out of 5 stars
I don't want my competitors to read this book,
By
This review is from: Writing That Works 3e (Paperback)
This was a terrific book which I would recommend to all of my clients, colleagues and friends -- but not to my competitors. It gives too many good ideas on how to get your message across effectively, succinctly and clearly. The style is particularly effective -- bullet points with examples and real world examples of how to write more effectively. As a securities analyst following technology companies, I am in a very writing-intensive business, where I need to get my point across as effectively as possible in as few words as possible. At another level, I am alarmed by the caliber of writing that I see from people who we recruit -- people from major universities and graduate schools -- who are unable to write effectively. This book will be a useful tool for them -- better late than never.

This review is from: Writing That Works 3e (Paperback)
Writing That Works is a practical guide to effective business writing. Best of all, the writers practice what they preach: the book is packed with useful advice, yet it's a surprisingly quick read.

A must for people who want to clealy communicate their ideas,
This review is from: Writing That Works 3e (Paperback)
As each edition of this book that comes out, I purchase copies for my new staff, experienced staff, clients, and friends. Life is so much simplier when we can communicate consisely and effectively, and receive ideas from others that are clear as well. What we like about this edition of "Writing That Works" is that it is right-up-to-date with new economy communications like e-mail. By distributing the book to my entire staff, I'm ensured that we're presenting a consistent voice to our clients. Follow the writing tips in this book, and you will have people complimenting you on the clarity of your thoughts, and your professionalism.
