"Editors, you're not done when you've read the fourth edition of The Copyeditor's Handbook. Do every single exercise in the comprehensive Workbook. You have to love a workbook that has an exercise with an editor's version of the classic lightbulb joke."--Katharine O'Moore-Klopf, ELS, owner of KOK Edit
"The Copyeditor's Workbook is a dream come true for teachers and students, a major expansion on (but including) Amy Einsohn's original exercises. Thorough and (yes) often entertaining, the Workbook offers more than forty strategic drills--most of them new--in print and digital form. Perfect for training meticulous yet insightful copyeditors."--Carol Saller, author of The Subversive Copy Editor "The Workbook triples the number of exercises from the origin Handbook and offers far more scope for classroom settings, solo learning, and informal study groups."--Pm Weizenbaum, 2018 president of the Northwest Editors Guild "I'm really excited about The Copyeditor's Workbook. It fills a gap in editor education and will help students develop that most elusive of skills--editorial judgment. With reminders that often there is no one right answer and exposure to different editing techniques and editor resources, the Workbook is an excellent addition to any copyediting course using The Copyeditor's Handbook."--Erin Brenner, owner of Right Touch Editing and former owner of Copyediting.com"Sobre este título" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
