A short and entertaining book on the modern art of writing well by New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker
Why is so much writing so bad, and how can we make it better? Is the English language being corrupted by texting and social media? Do the kids today even care about good writing? Why should any of us care?
Another how-to book on writing but this is one of the best to come along in many years...model of intelligent signposting and syntactical comportment.
