White's <i>Elements of Style</i> and William Zinsser's <i>On Writing Well</i>, Lamb remains true to classic writing advice while mirroring the modern business world... Lamb's short, tightly focused chapters and clear prose make this title a must-have for public, academic, and business collections." --<i>Library Journal</i><br><i></i><br><i></i>"Yes, it's possible to write business prose without sounding like Mr. Burns. Sandra Lamb can tell you how to deliver that bad-news memo, how to write email like a grown-up, how to take blame without groveling, and how to be grammatically correct without being stiff. She knows! And anyone who advises against 'repurpose' and 'strategic fit' gets my vote." --<i>Patricia T. O'Conner, author with Stewart Kellerman, of Woe Is I and, Origins of the Specious.</i></p><p>"Sandra Lamb is a pro's pro as a writer, editor and coach.

Sandra Lamb has truly written a fine and concise book that includes all the fundamentals of writing for business and for life. This is one of the best books on writing that I have ever read in my near 40 years of college teaching. This incredible book is nicely designed to allow writers quick and easy access to all of the necessary rules needed to write proper emails, reports, and other office research projects. This is a wonderful book to help both students and professionals succeed. Writing Well will give writers of all levels the confidence and knowledge to be an expert writer on the job or in the classroom.

Liebler, Department of English / Wayne State University-Detroit</i></p><p>"Sandra E. Lamb has made an enviable career out of practicing what she preaches.

Businesses which assign her sensible and useful new book on writing may start to save some of the billions of dollars now being poured into remedial writing classes for all levels of employees." --Will Fitzhugh, <i>The Concord Review</i></p><p>"This is the one book your high school English teacher would like you to commit to memory.
