This classic work, now in its the third edition, takes a long, hard look at the use - and constant misuse - of English. Declaring war on bad grammar, woolliness of expression and poor choice of vocabulary, Usage and Abusage sets out both to highlight problems and pitfalls and offer constructive advice on the proper use of English.
• A landmark work on English usage, now updated to take account of changing views and new issues
• Complete coverage of grammatical problems (split infinitives, confused participles), words that are commonly misused or confused (imply and infer, impracticable and impractical) and points of style (different to and different from, would rather and had rather)
• Articles on a range of topics including punctuation, clichés and writing précis
• Advice on how to write clearly and elegantly
