Coretext: Handbook for Writers - Softcover
CoreText is an innovative handbook written collaboratively by two writing teachers and a software designer. Not only does it give succinct, clear answers to questions about usage, style, and the strategies of research, but it provides crucial information about electronic sources and documentation for writers doing research online.

Available in both print and electronic versions, CoreText is a do-it-yourself manual for writers working with today's tools for solving today's problem.
