The Stoddard text provides readable, easy-to-understand discussions of grammar principles along with rules of usage and helpful illustrations of how these principles should be applied. Although it is not a comprehensive grammar text, it will supplement any business English or communication course taught at many two- and four-year colleges and universities, where the instructor is concerned about students needing additional drill-type editing exercises and activities to learn how to apply important grammar concepts correctly. It concentrates on the most frequently used and abused principles, rules, and concepts of grammar usage.
