Just a comment. I used the St, Martin's Business Writer's Handbook last term, and though I found the contents very usefull, the alphabetical organization was a hinderance. The headings aren't obvious and I had to look most things up in one of the indexes anyways, plus there was no pedagogical or logical flow. They have an alternate text--a guide to writing or something. Anyone used that? At 02:53 PM 1/27/99 -0400, you wrote: > Greetings!
