Synopsis

In Editing for Clear Communication, Thomas Lieb extols the importance of learning both the micro and the macro aspects of editing. Main chapters introduce macro editing topics such as finding holes, checking facts, and dealing with ethics and legal issues. Chapters end with "Grammar School" sections, which cover micro editing topics such as spelling and punctuation. Lieb's careful attention to these principles will help your students prepare for a variety of opportunities in communications.
