"Possibly the most popular book on grammar ever published." --Writers.com "Lighthearted and funny... It's like Strunk and White combined with S. J. Perelman--none of whom would have had the slightest objection." --The New York Times Book Review "Extraordinary... I'm keeping this book by my keyboard." --The Philadelphia Inquirer "Invigorating and entertaining... As vital as a dictionary for those who wish to be taken seriously in speech, in print, or on Facebook." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) "A nifty guidebook to modern grammar that affectionately elbows the reader on every page." --San Francisco Chronicle
