Product Details
Overview
The Christian Writer's Manual of Style is a Christian-publishing-industry standard. Now in its 5th edition, the manual offers vital information to writers in the religious and general markets, including many topics that are not addressed in other style manuals. This edition contains all the most relevant material from the fourth edition—entries on capitalization, abbreviation, citation, fictional dialogue, and more—but all of it has been thoroughly revised and updated to keep pace with the changes in our language, including:
- An expanded “Word List,” with more than sixty additional entries.
- An expanded “Capitalization of Religious Terms” list, with more than six hundred words added.
- New sections: artificial intelligence; ancient monetary values; colloquial English; dyslexia issues; passive voice; Spanish style; using autocorrect, spellcheckers, and grammar programs; abbreviations for Roman Catholic orders; and more.
This book still adheres to Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 12th Edition and has been thoroughly updated to conform to the new Chicago Manual of Style, 18th Edition.
