The e-book is hard to search. It uses vague locations instead of page numbers.
The content of the book has so far been helpful with my Technical Communications class. The main issue I have had with the e-book version is the lack of proper page numbers. Most of my readings list page numbers. So, rather than easily jump to a page, I have to search through vague “locations” instead. I really wanted to like the e-book format. This version just seems to be inefficient to how I use e-books (quick searches to topics and pages). So, my main criticism is against the poor layout of the e-book, not the content.

Another “required” textbook
Required for a college course. 3 star rating because I frankly have a major philosophical issue with the textbook industry bleeding already financially weary students. The only reason it gets 3 stars is because it was a functional product.

Relatable reference!
I love the fact that the information listed in this book is something I can reference even at the office. It will definitely be a staple on my work desk as a great reminder from my undergrad career!

Helpful, and clears confusion.
I found this book to be helpful. The content is organized in alphabetical order, and provides extensive examples for most topics. When I did not understand entirely from class what format to use in a certain type of writing, the book cleared my understanding.

Good book, yet nothing really new, different or better from similar books.

No Page Numbers?
This is my first attempt at a Kindle purchase and I am very disappointed. I rented a book for an online class and soon realized there are no page numbers available. It is difficult to keep up with reading assignments without knowing what page I am actually on. I've attempted to find a way to contact Amazon for a return although there are no easy methods I see available.

It's an A-Z reference guide rather than a book you read through from start to finish but it's proven very useful for my job
Invaluable guide for technical writing. It's an A-Z reference guide rather than a book you read through from start to finish but it's proven very useful for my job. Quite US centric but it does at least acknowledge that.
