Summary: merely adequate
Comment: every english major and writer should have a freshman comp handbook. this one is okay. it covers everything well enough.and if it weren't for the Little, Brown Handbook, i might suggest the Scott, Foresman Handbook. But the little brown handbook is by far superior, and i suggest that anyone interested in the scott foresman, or any other freshman comp handbook, check out the little brown before making a purchase.

Rating: 3
Summary: Straightforward and Comprehensive
Comment: This book is aimed mostly at students and inexperienced writers. The subjects covered range from commonly-confused words to punctuation to creative inspiration to revision to research papers and business letters -- basically, everything. For students, there are sections on how to write for particular academic subjects.

As a general reference, this book has just about everything you'd need, although the sections on computerized research and word processing are a bit outdated. There is plenty of advice for people who need help with grammar or who are trying to make their writing less awkward and more effective. It is well-indexed, allowing you to quickly find answers and advice, which is good because plodding through the book sequentially (even with the help of the table of contents) would be very tedious.

Rating: 4
Summary: It truly helps with reports for all grades
Comment: Hey guys, If your not sure this book will help you. I am telling you it will. I had a English course in college,it was required for class. Although, I would usually return my books, I kept this one. It has helped me during the course of my college years. In addition, it helps my sibling who is in high school.This book will help with any English problem you may be having.
