A great book for The elements of business writing. I like how they make it readable like putting things in sections and lists. Great for a lot A different kind of writing.It's just short of 140 pages with a thorough index and contents.

Haven't read this yet, I just received an email about it. It was an ad, trying to get me to buy this PDF download for $99! Don't do it--I searched for it on Google and immediately found it in PDF format. I'll take a look at it when I finally have a little free time at work. Luckily, I'm a great speller and am often the one correcting emails and correspondence for my boss before they are sent, so I'm not in a great rush to read this yet. :)

Excellent book for any professional. Very straight forward with numbered writing rules. Every person in the business world should own this book to refer to when writing any type of business correspondence.

The purpose of business writing is to express an idea clearly. Get to the point.

The purpose is not to impress or use fancy words that make your meaning hard to discern.

I wish more people in business would read this. Ten times.
