Summary: great resource for student writing
Comment: I assign this book in all of my courses. It is a concise and precise tool for improving student writing. The book is divided into sections for Grammar (G.O), Punctuation (P.0) and Spelling (S.0). The subheadings for each section are intuitive rather than technical. If you are having trouble deciding whether to use the word "fewer" or the word "less," you go to the section titled "Fewer vs. Less." When grading student papers I can simply refer to the sections of the book rather than having to write the full grammatical explanation for every error. For example, the "its vs it's" confusion is solved with a reference to section S.21, "except/accept" S.19. Students have found the book helpful and user friendly. The explanations are clear and succint.
