A Writer's Reference- 2003 MLA Update
| A Writer's Reference |
- Review:: 'For both my jobs I work full-time for a printer as a proofreader/editor. Part-time, I am an English instructor at the Manhattan campus of the College of New Rochelle. For both these jobs, my one and only Bible is Diana Hacker's, "A Writer's Reference". It is a comprehensive, easily accessible tool for students and professionals alike.
- Review:: 'Small, expensive, important Let's be real, this book is small -- almost pocket-sized. But that's the whole idea. This tough little book provides a quick reference for all English composition forms, so serious writers will want to carry it everywhere. It is a must-have for any high-school or college student taking English composition. Any person who writes for a living should have this book as well. The spiral binding allows the open book to sit flat on your desk. Its cover is heavily laminated so it can be tossed into a backpack or briefcase without thrashing it too much. ...And you won't want to thrash it because this is one expensive bad-boy book.
- Review:: 'handy little book This book will come in very handy for any college or may be even high school students when they are writing essays. Many detailed requirements for citing sources and rules for plagarisms are alll included in here, and it's worth it to review them if you don't wanna get sent to the dean's office. I was a surprise to discover that this book also included AAP and Chicago style requirements as well. If you are social science student this format will come in handy because social science departments are usually very old school and loves footnotes and endnotes. This book also have some guides to simple grammatical mistakes that many writers make. As useful as this section may be, it didn't cover the subjects extensively or detailed enough to be really applicable in more complex writing situations. It only gives few and simple examples. This is a handy little book to have if you know you will be writing academic papers a lot. I always have this one my desk so I know how to properly cite just about every source I use.
- Review:: 'A must-have I am so excited about this reference book. Definitely a must-have for anyone who writes, whether it be for research, blogging, academic papers or just plain Dear John letters. This one is sticking by me FOREVER (until the updates).
- Review:: 'Loved It Every member of my family has a copy - ages 14 to 75 (thanks to me). The book is invaluable in any type of writing including school,personal,and business. The index is useful.
Quick Access, Reference for Writers (5th Edition)
Book by Lynn Q. Troyka and Doug Hesse. Prentice Hall 576 pages Paperback Published 2006-02-13.- Review:: 'Highly Recommend On the inside flap of this book it says, "This edition was designed to help you quickly find answers to all kinds of questions you may have about writing." The QA, by Lynn Troyka does just that. The Quick Access Reference for Writers is an excellent resource book for all writers, especially students.
My college English teacher assigned the QA for our class. While I haven't read the entire book, I found all of the sections I have used to be beneficial in every aspect of my writing. The exercises that my teacher had us complete from the "Writing Process" section were very useful. I think completing these exercises helps to strengthen ones writing. In particular, the exercises keep an individual familiar with the writing process so that when they do have to write something, they can hopefully delve right into it.
I also used the book for grammatical questions and guidance on MLA documentation. Both sections easily explain the subject in what I will refer to as "laymen's terms." Most other writing books I have referenced seem to be written in a hoity fashion. This, to me isn't very beneficial, especially considering I wouldn't be looking in a writing reference book if I did not need something to be simply explained to me. I find MLA to be very confusing (and utterly annoying!). The QA was able to answer and explain my questions on documentation straightforwardly and made completely in the bibliography section of my papers a breeze.
The organization of the book is what makes it so wonderful and useful. The actual format of the text and its arrangement is unlike most writing books that I have sought reference in. Instead of having to search for the table of contents to find the part you are looking for, the book uses divider-tabs to separate the major sections. Examples of these sections include, "Thinking and Reading Reflectively," "Research," "MLA Documentation," "Grammar Basics," and "Tips for Multilingual Writers." This format makes it extremely easy to find the information you need. Also, the table of contents itself is excellently organized. It completely outlines each section of the book, making it very easy to find the one you need. The QA was so useful, that I found myself using it not only for the assigned class, but also for my own research in personal writing and for other college classes.
For those who need instant gratification, I recommend this book highly. Almost any question you may have concerning writing, you will be able to find it in this book quickly and easily. The Quick Access Reference for Writers lives up to its name entirely.
- Review:: 'An excellent, quick reference for writers It's a worthwhile addition to any writer or editors reference materials. Clear, concise, and easy to use. Particularly liked the editor's marks reference right in the front.
- Review:: 'Caution, teachers: Not for anyone needing help with grammar! I was given this book on the first day of classes by my division head at my community college. In the past, we had always used the "Simon and Schuster Handbook for Writiers" Fifth Edition, which is a far better text.
If your students are needing a text that will help them understand and learn grammar, punctuation, style, and referencing, Quick Access is not the text for them. The afore mentioned handbook, however, is. Once they have mastered the handbook, the Quick Access is perfect for someone who has knowledge of all the rules but might just occasionally need to check the odd thing or two. Keep this in mind when considering this text for either your classes or yourself.
- Review:: 'A Simple but Good Reference Being a college student and starting a career in journalism, I have acquired numerous writing references. Quick Access has an advantage over Writer's Reference in that it has easy to acces cross-references and can lay flat while one is writing and is sturdy to handle this college student. Am I an ace reporter or an A student? Getting there with Quick Access.
