Excerpts from The Essential Handbook for Business Writing
There are five colour-coded sections in The Essential Handbook for Business Writing: 1) Composition Basics 2) Business Writing 3) Usage 4) Proposals and Reports 5) Visual Basics
In this PDF sampler, you'll find exact pages from each section specially selected to give an overview of the detailed and inclusive content of The Essential Handbook for Business Writing.
The Composition Basics section focuses on grammar including punctuation, spelling, capitalization, and sentence structure. This section provides a solid foundation for the rest of the text. For some, this may be nothing more than a review of the principles of grammar that they are familiar with; for others, it may be much-needed lessons in writing basics.
The Business Writing section outlines the process of composing business communication and offers precise examples of business letters that can act as templates.
The Usage section deals with frequently misused or confused terms. Proper usage is critical for producing clear and precise communication. Many of these problem areas are instantly recognizable, even for the seasoned writer.
The Proposals and Reports section outlines the purpose and structure of these types of documents with examples (in brief) of both. Each component of a proposal and a report is explained in detail enabling the writer to duplicate the process and produce an official proposal or report.
The Visual Basics section offers hints on how to produce attractive, visually enhanced documents. The basic principles of using fonts, images, and creative page layouts are explained with examples.
The full text of The Essential Handbook For Business Writing (192 pages) is designed to offer a lesson on every page. Instructions are brief, examples are plentiful, and learning is instant. Written from the experience and perspective of a long-time teacher of English, the text is devised to make learning the skills of professional business writing simple and straightforward.
