the Thinking Person's Guide to Writing in the 21st Century
Aug 28, 2016KABuck rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
For those interested in writing, language, psychology, or how the human mind does some of its greatest things, this book is a gold mine. Acclaimed author and professor Steven Pinker discusses the craft of writing in a comfortable, witty, and confident voice, while not hesitating to pour forth his vast knowledge of psycholinguistics for readers to soak in. The text does not come off as arrogant or excessively admonitory, but keep in mind that it does present some heavy analytical content in which a sleepy bed-time reader could get lost!
