The Little, Brown Handbook. Global Edition

The Little, Brown Handbook is a basic resource that will answer almost any question you have about writing. Here you can find how to get ideas, develop paragraphs, punctuate quotations, find sources for research projects, cite sources, or write a resume. The handbook can help you not only in writing courses but also in other courses and outside of school. Don't let the size of the handbook put you off. You need not read the whole book to get something out of it, and no one expects you to know everything included. Primarily a reference tool, the handbook is written and arranged to help you find the answers you need when you need them, quickly and easily. Using this book by itself will not make you a good writer; for that, you need to care about your work at every level, from finding a subject to spelling words. But learning how to use the handbook and its information can give you the means to write what you want in the way you want it. (From book preface).
