A. A gem in the haystack of legal writing books Brian Garner is Editor-in-Chief of the prestigious Black's Law Dictionary, but his approach here is anything but stodgy. This book, published by Oxford University Press, looks at legal style in language. It includes his own set of 'rules' for usage, some of which will be familiar to most.

When Bryan A. Tribe, and Justice Scalia. Now he has written a new writing guide, this one inspired by Strunk & White's classic book, TheElements of Style. Like the Strunk & White book, The Elements of Legal Style offers authoritative, down-to-earth, and often witty advice on a broad array of writing concerns, from basic grammatical rules to enhancing clarity, force, and persuasiveness.

In a section on commonly misused words in law, Garner crisply guides readers through the hazards of legal wordchoice. Fred Rodel
