Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. The author relies too heavily on irritating self-deprecating humor, but the book is a useful and easy-to-understand guide to grammar. Despite all his self-congratulation about how few "to be" verbs he uses (and why this makes the book better and less boring), the author repeats himself. A lot. If you ask me, that's also a recipe for boredom. But in general a pretty useful guide. I now know how to use that and which properly; the difference has mystified me for years, and I think I finally get it. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
In America today college professors cringe at the lack of writing skills displayed by their students, business leaders bemoan poor communicative skills among their employees, and people themselves recognize that they (and their children) have a problem and want to do something about it. This inviting book introduces readers anew to the eight parts of speech and common grammatical problems -- such as the case of pronouns depicted in the book's title, the tension between nouns and verbs, the controversy of the active vs. passive voice, and the power of a verb-based style. Then equipped with a knowledge of the parts of speech and the power of the verb form, Good presents his theory of style and the craft of sentences -- including those important marks of punctuation.
