Decent for the AP Test but...
This book is quite appropriate for the AP World History test, and provides you with most of the information you'll need for the test, however, it does contain several gaping flaws if read purely for interest or outside the context of an AP class. As some other reviewers have mentioned, it attempts to be too politically correct, and dissmisses European achievements, while hailing many less ...

Moby-Dick: A Longman Critical Edition

Herman Melville
Longman Publishing Group, 2007
Excellent
This is an excellent new edition of Moby Dick, with detailed informational notes and "double text," showing and explaining the differences between the American and British versions of MD. There are also very helpful diagrams and prints, illucidating some of the nonfiction/informational chapters. Excellent text for college students studying at the upper levels.

The Little, Brown Essential Handbook for Writers (3rd Edition)

Little, but essential
I have assigned an earlier edition of this book for an upper-division historical geography course that featured lots of writing. The Essential Handbook is compact, easy-to-use, and inclusive of the essential information needed by college-level writers. While there are larger, more detailed works that the continuing writer will want, this little book provides a fine initiation into the world of ...

A highly practical dictionary of American English
The more I use Longman Advanced American Dictionary (LAAD), the more I find myself liking it. It is a highly practical reference tool on how to say things correctly or write something properly. Not as detailed as Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (OALD), but less crowded and easier to use. In fact, for the type of audience it targets, LAAD is the closest competition to OALD solely dedicated to ...

William Shakespeare
Longman Publishing Group, 1997
Still the best
This was the text for my college Shakespeare classes over 20 years ago (different edition of course) I still have it and still use it. A wonderful book for students and those who want not only the complete works but some well written and authoritative information about Shakespeare and the world in which he lived and wrote. The texts of the plays are well foot-noted and the type is easy on the ...
A Short Guide to Writing about Biology (4th Edition)
6 reviews
Jan A. Pechenik
Longman Publishing Group, 2000
An essential for all students.
As a university professor teaching budding biologists, I've found this book to be excellent. As the other reviewer said, I wished I had this book when I was a student. I, too, had to learn things the long and hard way. Pechinik has done a great service to science students. Let's hope we see more good writing out of this next generation of young scientists.

A must-have book for any aspiring writer!!!!! Get this one!
I would give this book more than 5 stars - between 7 and 10 stars. Great value for money $$$$$. Lots of lessons in over 900 pages. Inspirational learning. At home, I have NUMEROUS books on grammar, punctuation, style, writing, etc. The Little Brown Handbook is among them and it is one of the BEST I have ever read. It is as comprehensive as you'd like it to be. If you're an aspiring ...

Great Intro to American Politics Textbook
Excellent intro to politics text. I highly recommend it for a classroom or for anyone really who wants to sit down with a plain-spoken piece to get you to understand our government. Whether it is for someone with little knowledge as to who this vast bureaucracy works, or for someone with a fairly good knowledge of it all - I don't think it will disappoint. I think what I appreciated the most was ...

It's a Classic!
I've been teaching ESL for 16 years and developmental writing and reading, college level, for 10 years, and I strongly recommend Betty Azar's Chartbook as a reference book. It is written for the ESL audience, but I also use it in my writing instruction for native speakers. I recommend it highly for ESL speakers who have finished their formal ESL instruction or who are in an advanced level. ...
