商品簡介
US-based Berkshire Publishing has long focused on international content in its reference publications, providing readers with global perspectives on diverse topics, from sports to sustainability. Developed in the process of setting criteria for planning and judging a global reference, their Manual serves as a supplement to the US industry standard Chicago Manual of Style. Informed by its network of international scholars, Berkshire Publishing incorporates into their Manual knowledge about and from all corners of the world, to offer users--including those whose first language is not English and/or those who are new to publishing in English--a collection of guidelines, rules, exceptions to rules, meditations and asides on writing and word use. The material includes a copy editor's manual, author and reviewer guidelines, and Berkshire Publishing in-house style guidelines. Annotation c2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
