This new, expanded tenth edition of the best-selling guide to style is based on The Economist's own updated house style manual, and is an invaluable companion for everyone who wants to communicate with the clarity, style and precision for which The Economist is renowned. As the introduction says, 'clarity of writing usually follows clarity of thought.' The Economist Style Guide gives general advice on writing, points out common errors and clichés, offers guidance on consistent use of punctuation, abbreviations and capital letters, and contains an exhaustive range of reference material - covering everything from accountancy ratios and stock market indices to laws of nature and science. Some of the numerous useful rules and common mistakes pointed out in the guide include: ·Which informs, that defines. This is the house that Jack built. But: This house, which Jack built, is now falling down. ·Discreet means circumspect or prudent; discrete means separate or distinct. Remember that "Questions are never indiscreet. Answers sometimes are" (Oscar Wilde). ·Flaunt means display, flout means disdain. If you flout this distinction you will flaunt your ignorance ·Forgo means do without; forego means go before. ·Fortuitous means accidental, not fortunate or well-timed. ·Times Take care.Three times more than X is four times as much as X. ·Full stops Use plenty. They keep sentences short. This helps the reader.

评分对经济学人杂志一直很友爱,从大学一直到现在工作了多几年。偶尔见到这本小书,赶紧看起来。主要是侧重传统的英文规则,词句的解答,同时指出现有用法的一些常见错误,作者以字母顺序介绍一些单词,同时穿插相关的其他单词或者词句的用法,读起来非常有趣,以前很以为然的词句...
评分Singularly imperious and deliberately majestic, before catching the nitty-gritty of the guide book, it's remarkable to pre-perceive the reason why The Economist is cavalier about the misuse about Writing-in-English of the rest of newspaper or outlets, and i...
评分行文有趣,就像一个老先生在不停数说学生的错误。 第一部分按字母顺序列举了常见的歧义、误用和句读规则; 第二部分比对英美之别; 第三部分是常用缩写、单位换算、国家数据之类的信息; 非常实用的编辑手册。但是英语应用的潮流方向早已不在不列颠人的手里。五十年前BBC不再...
