This book is smart. It is practical and helpful. Besides offering many great ideas on writing coherant paragraphs, it becomes an excellent aid to brainstorming. My only gripe is that there is no bibliography for reference and further study, and no references to recommended paragraphs by other writers. Still, I know of no book quite like this. Im glad I bought it.
