A third section deals with relations between the two and a fourth provides an annotated critical bibliography of two kinds of key reference works – dictionaries and guide to style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElise Stainton’s shrewd words will be of practical help to everyone who is or aspires to be an author or editor.
