This may be a good reference book for those who have a working knowledge of this subject, but buyer beware, that's all it is.

In the instructions regarding my first essay assignment, the professor said to "use MLA or APA." Having no instruction in English over the past 36 years, and no idea what this meant, I looked it up on the internet and ordered this book. In the second chapter: "The Basics of Citation," there is no mention or explanation of basic elements that must be entered into a citation.

Thank-you for doing business with me.

This is definitely the best book I read regarding citation styles. It's nicely written, self explanatory, extremely well organized.

The examples are clear and make it easy to understand how to use each reference style. I use APA in grad school and MLA as a teacher, so having both styles in one book is very helpful to me. This a a solid guide to ALL citation styles. If you don't want to buy all separate guides, this is a good way to go. It is the perfect book for a college or master's level grad student.

I like this book a lot. I'm a mid-life returning graduate student who's halfway through my program. Although I have the APA Manual, I still refer to this book for APA as well as MLA and legal citations. I like the fact that it lists in-text and works cited together so you can see how to cite within the body of your writing and at the end. A very worthwhile book to have on your reference shelf.
