Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Good Addition to The Elements of Style
The Elements of Business Writing is clearly modeled after Strunk and White's "The Elements of Style", and it is a worthy addition. Authors Blake and Bly essentially have re-written the classic "Elements", and transformed it into "Business Elements". Lots of specific usage and style pointers, which I found very helpful. A quick read, may be somewhat of a review if you have written on the job for years, but this book also makes an excellent refresher for all the nuances that make writing go from good to great.



Rated by buyers 1 out of 5 stars - The Elements of Business Writing: A Guide to Writing Clear, Concise Letters, Memos, Reports, Proposals, and Other Business Docum
This is the type of book that collects dust at the bottom of your bookshelf, if it does not find it's way into the charity throw out bin. I wouldn't bother.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Good but old
The elements of business writing give good point to look at.But the book is old and sometime give weird information.It's not an important book to have but, but still have some info.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Very helpful, easy to read.
This book was easy to read and very helpful in communication skills.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - One the best guides for business writers
This book, with an obvious nod to Strunk and White (which it surpasses), lists 67 principles of good writing, with about two pages each of details and examples. It's on the short list of recommended resources in my book The McGraw-Hill 36-Hour Course in Business Writing and Communication.
