Product Description
Details steps caught up in publishing a book and provides a guide to usage.Amazon.com Review
This is the definitive text for questions of manuscript protocol, copyediting, style, grammar, and usage. For those who find The Chicago Manual of Style a bit cumbersome and sometimes ambigous, Words Into Type will be a welcome reference guide. With its simple-to-use index and definitive explanations, this third edition makes life simpler for writers, editors, and proofreaders. You may never need to know about frontispieces and imprimaturs, but if you deal with words, this is a wonderfully edifying, reassuring fount of clarity and wisdom.

I find this book dated in terms of computer standards and language. What is the LATEST version of this? Is it 1974 as previous reviews indicated?
How do I find this out? Someone reviewed the Prentice-Hall updated version and found it much poorer than the original. What is the date of that Prentice-Hall version?
Is this book out of print as another editor recently told me?
We are trying to choose on a standard style guide for our company documentation. I don’t want to pick this guide if it is out of date or out of print.

I didn’t guess this used book to be in such excellent shape, and I received it a link of days after I ordered it.

A dinosaur that hasn’t been updated since 1974! And it shows. Nevertheless, it’s still the basis for many magazines’ styles.

Excellent as a reference but not something you pick up everyday. Very excellent as a reference, but.
