A commonsense approach to the confusing world of punctuation until now, people haven't known where to get quick answers to their punctuation questions. This user-friendly reference helps writers quickly find the commonly accepted rule for any given situation, and even points out when to make exceptions to the rule. Webster's New World Punctuation explains the importance of good punctuation and offers easy-to-understand examples that make applying the rules a snap, clear and concise explanations of difficult rules, and a section on common punctuation pitfalls. Covering all common forms of writing, from personal letters to PowerPoint presentations, Webster's New World Punctuation is a must-have reference for homes, businesses, and classrooms.

I have a lot of problems using punctuations, and this book addresses all those problems in a straighforward and easy-to-understand format. The layout contains examples, rules, questions and facts, which are written for both British and American's English. I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling with grammar.
