Correct English: The classic practical reference guide to using spoken and written English

Description

This classic book by Brian Phythian has been updated and simplified to make it accessible and relevant to today's readers. Never has the ability to express yourself well - in job interviews and presentations as well as in the writing of letters and reports - been more important. With an analysis of how English is used in a wide variety of contexts, ranging from the simple transmission of factual material (including journalism and advertising) to the sophisticated use of language in creative writing, this book will help you to improve your ability to express yourself clearly and correctly in both spoken and written English.

Brian Phythian was a celebrated headteacher and recognised authority on the English language. Albert Rowe taught English at a secondary school level for many years.
