You know the authors’ names. You recognize the title. You've probably used this book yourself. And now The Elements of Style –the most widely read and employed English style manual–is available in a specially bound 50th Anniversary Edition that offers the title's vast audience an opportunity to own a more durable and elegantly bound edition of this time-tested classic.

Offering the same content as the Fourth Edition, revised in 1999, the new casebound 50th Anniversary Edition includes a brief overview of the book's illustrious history. Used extensively by individual writers as well as high school and college students of writing, it has conveyed the principles of English style to millions of readers. This new deluxe edition makes the perfect gift for writers of any age and ability level. Fifty Years of Acclaim for The Elements of Style , by William Strunk Jr. and E.B. White I first read Elements of Style during the summer before I went off to Exeter, and I still direct my students at Harvard to their definition about the difference between 'that' and 'which.' It is the Bible for good, clear writing.”-- Henry Louis Gates Jr. “For writers of all kinds and sizes the world begins and ends with Strunk and White’s Elements of Style . Only something to actually write abouttrumps the list of what is required to put words together in some kind of coherent way. I treasure its presence in my life and salute its fifty years of glory and accomplishment."-- Jim Lehrer “ The Elements of Style remains an unwavering beacon of light in these grammatically troubled times. I would be lost without it.” -- Ann Patchett "To the extent I know how to write clearly at all, I probably taught myself while I was teaching others -- seventh graders, in Flint, Michigan, in 1967. I taughtthem witha copy of Strunk & White lying in full view on my desk, sort of in the way the Gideons leave Bibles in cheap hotel rooms, as a way of saying to the hapless inhabitant: ‘In case your reckless ways should strand you here, there's help.’ S&W doesn't really teach you how to write, it just tantalizingly reminds you that there's an orderly wayto go about it, that clarity's ever your ideal, but -- really -- it's all going to be up to you." -- RichardFord “ The Elements of Style never seems to go out of date. Its counsel is sound and funny, wise and unpretentious. And while its precepts are a foundation of direct communication, Strunk and White do not insist on a way of writing beyond clear expression. The rest is up to the imagination, the intelligence within.” -- David Remnick, editor of The New Yorker “It’s the toughness–the irreverence and implicit laughter–that attracted me to the little book when I was seventeen. I fell in love with Strunk & White’s loathing for cant and bloviation, the ruthless cutting of crap, jargon, and extra words. For me, that skeptical directness included a tacit permission by The Elements of Style to break its rules on occasion: an alloy of generosity in the blade, a grace I still admire and still learn from.” -- Robert Pinsky “In the quest for clarity, one can have no better guides than Strunk and White. For me, their book has been invaluable and remains essential.” -- Dan Rather "Eschew surplusage! A perfect book."--Jonathan Lethem "Not until I started teaching writing and I reread The Elements of Style did I realize that most everything I would be teaching young writers, and everything I would be learning myself as a writer, was contained between the covers of this slim, elegant, wise little book. -- Julia Alvarez “Strunk and White seared their way into my brain long ago, and I benefit from them daily.” -- Steven J. Dubner, co-author of Freakonomics “Since high school, I have kept a copy of this book handy. That should be unnecessary. I should, by now, have fully internalized The Elements of Style . But sometimes I get entangled in a paragraph that refuses to be ‘clear, brief, bold.’ I dip back into The Elements of Style and am refreshed.

After Scott Simon interviewed me on NPR about whether the word ‘e-mail’ needs a hyphen (yes, it does), some listeners, including friends of mine, wondered why I had answered in the affirmative when asked, in passing, ‘Are you a drunken white man?’ Those listeners misheard. ‘Strunk and White man’ was what Scott said.” -- Roy Blount Jr. “Strunk & White--writing's good-natured law firm--still contains enough sparkling good sense to clean up the whole bloviating blogosphere." -- Thomas Mallon “I used Strunk -- that’s what we called it, Strunk -- as a student at Berkeley fifty years ago. I didn't know that it was new, and that we were the first generation to be educated in The Elements of Style . I got a firm foundation in the English language, learned to write basically, and could depict the realistic world.Then I was able to become an impressionist and expressionist.” -- Maxine Hong Kingston “Strunk and White's gigantic little book must be the most readable advice on writing ever written. Side by side with Roget, Shakespeare, the Bible, and adictionary, it's an essential forevery writer's shelf.” -- X.J. Kennedy...

剑桥英语语法主编溥哲夫(Geoffrey Pullum) 痛骂Strunk和White的ELEMENTS OF STYLE. Pullum在句法理论领域的学术水平完全超越怀疑。看完之后,我觉得他的批评很有道理。小白书的两位主编确实是不太懂英语语法的小白,我为我的盲从感到羞愧。 50 YEARS OF STUPID GRAMMAR ADVIC...

如果一个英文作家不知道这本书,那他肯定不是个英文作家。这本出版了将近百年的小书,已经成为了最有影响的英文写作指导书。先是由教授William Strunk Jr.自行出版,拿这本书教他的学生。他的学生E. B.怀特后来成了《纽约客》的编辑,并奠定了它幽默与优雅并存的文风。当出版社...

知道这本书,准确地说是一本只有43页的小册子,是从徐宥博客上一篇介绍计算机科学经典书籍的文章。 徐宥说:“各位读者老大中有不少都是大学生,相信不少都参加过形形色色的英语写作培训班。如果当年您参加培训班的时候,老师没有介绍一本叫做 <The Elements of Style> (TEoS)...

建议上a网买第四版的,封面是一只狗狗。 我们精读老师推荐的,她说这本书在欧美学写作的学生中基本是人手一本,称之为“the little book”。整本书叙述得非常清楚,图片和例句也穿插得当,最有意思的是老师在第一堂课给我们印发的“be clear”那章,它非常地不“clear”,甚至...

作者正如其书中提出的写作要求,把一条条的规则写得斩钉截铁,权威口吻不容置疑。不必举出那些文字被盛赞、却不遵守这些规则的经典作家来反驳,前言里说得很清楚:这是入门级别的指导。这书作为学术写作指导,对我来说是再合适不过。

E.B. White帮他老师扩展而成的,所以你知道……肯定质量高。只是内容太少,能全面指导写作就好了

评分

E.B.White还是学生的时候, William Strunk, Jr拿着这本小书给他上课, 那是1919年; 约莫四十年后, White将老师的心血整理出版; 几个月前, Mr. Wang带着这本他在Cornell学习时外教送的书, 给我们读了几句; 今天, 我把它看了. 虽不免有种学生一代不如一代之感, 读时仿佛能想象老先生当年的耳提面命, 因反省自己平日写作时说了多少废话浑话. 如果你遇到这本书, 就把它买了吧, 它是有生命的.
