The perfect fit for any college course
The first of its kind,
A Pocket Style Manual
continues to help student writers get answers to their writing and research questions. Its concise and straightforward content is flexible enough to suit the needs of writers in the humanities, social sciences, sciences, health professions, business courses, fine arts, teacher training courses, and beyond. Its slim format, brief length, and spiral binding make it a portable and practical tool. With its signature Diana Hacker quick-reference features,
A Pocket Style Manual
has always provided quick solutions to writing problems. Supplemented by the best free and open Web resources,
A Pocket Style Manual
offers the best value for students.
In the Hacker tradition,
the new contributing authors — Nancy Sommers, Tom Jehn, Jane Rosenzweig, and Marcy Carbajal Van Horn —
have crafted solutions for the challenges today’s college students face. Together they give us a new edition that provides more help with research writing and one that works better for a wider range of students.
"From a student’s perspective,
A Pocket Style Manual
is the perfect size and works as a handy reference tool for all of their classes."
