Description
Punctuation: A Guide for Editors and Proofreaders by Gerard M.-F. Hill provides a reason-based approach to punctuation and its uses, helping achieve maximum clarity and consistency in written documents.
This guide covers the basics of punctuation, including its purpose, usage, and evolution, as well as lesser-known marks and notes on US punctuation. It also includes over 100 real-life examples to build understanding, as well as a glossary of language-, grammar- and punctuation-based words and terms.
With a long-term perspective on how punctuation has changed, is changing, and will continue to change, this book offers valuable resources for editors, proofreaders, and anyone looking to improve their punctuation skills.
