Compact size and a higher quotient of straightforwardness will probably make this book the first choice of many students and other users, even if they suspect they might later have to turn to one of the larger, conventional sources. The book opens with a chapter on ethics and avoiding plagiarism, followed by one on research, one on writing a research paper, and a chapter on each of the four major styles—MLA, APA, CMS, and CSE. Everything is clearly explained, and the writers didn’t shy away from answering “dumb” questions of the kind that invariably arise in the minds of first-timers. Someone should have written this book years ago. --Harold Cordry
