Review "THE CONCISE WADSWORTH HANDBOOK is preferable in almost every way to my current handbook. Not only is it more thorough in its coverage of the material, but there are a number of design features I really like: the easy cross-referencing, the computer tip boxes, the numerous examples of the principles being addressed, and the tone. It really is one of the best [concise handbooks] I've ever seen." "I really like the CONCISE WADSWORTH HANDBOOK chapter on Workplace Writing and the sample application letter, resumes, etc. I like that THE CONCISE WADSWORTH HANDBOOK puts emphasis on writing in venues other than the classroom."
