For the student,

Strunk & White was a gift to me from my philosophy professor. I read it immediately and the knowledge I had gained from the book is impressive-I only wish that I would have read it at the beginning of my college career, and not towards the latter end. "The Elements of Style" has changed my writting and speaking mannerisms completely and I feel that my writting has become more fluent and professional. I am a pre-med major, and Strunk & White address issues that aid in scientific writting. I would strongly suggest for any student-highschool, college, or graduate-to read this and "keep it close at hand", just as my professor had said to me. And remember, rule 18: Omit Unnecessary Words.

A great guide,

I first encountered Strunk and White's 'Elements of Style' when I was an undergraduate, and I have been a fan of this book ever sense. Perhaps it is because of the excellent teamwork that is apparent on the pages between the master of language, William Strunk, and the master of narrative, E.B. White. How can you go wrong learning grammar from the likes of the author of such wonderful tales as Stuart Little? During my English composition class as an undergraduate, we had to read this book twice, once at the beginning of the term, and again at the end. I have since referred to the pages so often that I am on my fourth or fifth copy, as the binding and pages have worn out from use. Long before books such as 'Woe is I' or 'Eats, Shoots and Leaves', this book, 'The Elements of Style' has held a certain pride of place in being useful, accessible and interesting in its presentation of a traditionally and typically boring subject - grammar and usage. Among the pieces I re-read on a frequent basis is the list of commonly misused or abused words and phrases. Here is a list of easily corrected mistakes that the typical writer and speaker needs to keep in mind. Also, the suggestions for composition are gentle reminders that creativity and good craftsmanship need not be contradictory. This is a wonderful gift and wonderful treat for oneself.

Un livre qui suscite l'entouthiasme et le plaisir,

En abordant "Elements of Style" je ne pensais pas que j'éprouverais une tel plaisir de lecture. Cet ouvrage dense et ramassé rassemble toutes les qualités que j'admire dans la littérature américaine (notamment dans la littérature technique): la simplicité, l'efficacité, et la clarté.
