I've given away more copies of that book than any other. Improves all relationships.
"Elements of Style" aka Strunk and White. https://www.amazon.com/Elements-Style-Fourth-William-Strunk/dp/020530902X https://www.amazon.com/Elements-Style-Fourth-William-Strunk/...
I'd prefer they not only read Elements of Style, but work on it.

- xiuyuan 9y agoYou might find this interesting regarding Elements of Style: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2015/04/21/against-strunk-whites-the-elements-of-style/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/201... The original article it quotes can be found here: www.lel.ed.ac.uk/~gpullum/LandOfTheFree.pdf It's quite heavy criticism of Elements of Style from the Professor of General Linguistics at the University of Edinburgh.
