The Elements of Business Writing [antikvár]

AcknowledgmentsMore than any other type of book, a book about writing is a collaboration. Countless people whose names do not appear on the cover have helped us sort out the rules, guidelines, and opinions that form this book. Others have helped us in the expression of those rules; still others have guided our words into book form.Special thanks to Amy Bly and Eve Blakewives, writers, and co-workersas well as to Fern Dickey.Thanks also to our agent, Dominick Abel, who encouraged us, and to our editor, Natalie Chapman, whose editing kept us from straying from our own principles of plain English.A tip of the hat to our students, colleagues, clients, and teachersthe people who have helped us hone our thoughts about business writing. And a deep bow to the late E. B. White and William Strunk, Jr., whose Elements of Style serves as a model and an inspiration to us, as well as to everyone who struggles to write well.
