(It's true that nonsense is hazardous, and this eye-openin...)
It's true that nonsense is hazardous, and this eye-opening, intensely logical book powerfully argues that the most important first steps in dealing with our nation's problems involve seeing things clearly and then talking about them honestly. It's reassuring to welcome another candle in the darkness, another lighthouse of light focused on the reform of popular culture.

(Emphasizing creative, critical and ethical thinking, this...)
Emphasizing creative, critical and ethical thinking, this text shows students how to apply those skills to effective business correspondence, challenging them - through case studies and exercise applications - to think about complex communication issues. The authors have taken a fresh approach to the standard elements of business communication, with biographies of business communicators, an expanded definition of appropriate language and style, discussions of business law, and coverage of electronic communication and critical viewing of graphs. Throughout, the text stresses the global nature of today's workplace, and maintains sensitivity towards women and minorities in its examples.

Writing: Invitation and Response
(Have you ever been asked an instructor, "What do I do nex...)
Have you ever been asked an instructor, "What do I do next?" Have you ever been told rather vaguely, "Well that depends"? If either response has left you frustrated and still wondering what to do, you will appreciate the structure of this book. The answers to your questions will not be specific instructions that force you to work the way someone else expects. Neither will they be so vague that you still don't know what to do next. Instead, you will be given a framework in which to write, a framework that is flexible enough to lead you to your own best working habits, yet orderly enough to give direction to your work. (From "To the Student section" of this book.)
