Valuable information for all writers -- novice to expert

C. Saver's book (4th ed) provides information and guidance that is useful for all who wish to articulate an idea in written format. The text provides simple -- but not simplistic -- advice and information. Definitely a "keeper!"

Best Staff Teaching Resource

I have the 3rd edition and advocated for the e-Book in our Biomedical Library. I used this a lot to work with novice staff working on publications. I can't say enough on how practical and valuable this book is. I look forward to getting the 4th edition.
