    Long Synopsis:
    Grammar for People Who Hate Rules will help anyone who has ever worried
    that an email to a client might have embarrassing grammar mistakes … that a
    report for the boss won’t meet expectations … that a professor will find fault
    with a mid-term paper.

    Communication skills are valued everywhere, regardless of the field or position.


    But arcane rules or trying to figure out how to diagram a sentence don’t
    necessarily help develop grammar mastery. The tips in this book, a
    straightforward guide to many of today’s common word and punctuation errors,
    enable readers to make the right choices. It’s not meant to be an explanation of
    every grammar puzzle, and it doesn’t expound on terms such as subordinating
    conjunction for the dependent clause.

    What it does provide are short, easy-to-follow tips and examples about which
    word to choose, when to insert a comma, what to capitalize — and more.

    English grammar and usage can be confusing! Even the best writers sometimes
    pause to consider word and punctuation choices:

    • Which is it: lay or lie … me or I … that or who … titled or entitled?

    • Should the names of seasons be capitalized?

    • When does a sentence need a comma?

    • Would an interrobang work here?

    • Should book titles, plays or websites have quotation marks?

    Bonus tips cover writing effective emails as well as gracious ways to express and
    accept thanks, courtesies sometimes lost in today’s world of shortcuts and casual
    communication. And there’s a list of basic parts of speech used in everyday
    language.

    As a wrap-up, three quizzes provide even more examples and a chance to review
    and test knowledge.

    Grammar for People Who Hate Rules is an easy-to-read, easy-to-use guide — a


    perfect resource for getting today’s English grammar right. It will help pave the
    way to success at work, at school, or anywhere clear communication is valued.
