《写作者手册》（2015）
Handbook for Writers (2015)
导读
这是一本以 Creative Commons 授权存档的本科写作手册，内容涵盖语法错误示例、优劣用法对比、风格、易拼错词和英美拼写差异。它按主题组织，适合写作过程中快速查某个具体问题，尤其适合自认“不擅长文字”的写作者打基础。
可以直接用的写作要点
- 01
把写作手册当工具书用：遇到语法、拼写、风格问题按目录快速定位，而不是从头读到尾。
- 02
学习语法和风格时，重点看“差用法 vs 好用法”的对照例子，比只看规则更容易迁移到自己的句子里。
- 03
写作时留意英美拼写差异，并维护自己的易错词和易拼错词清单。
- 04
先确认手册的目标读者和难度；本科入门教材适合打基础，但不要期待它解决高阶文体问题。
HN 评论精选
把它当作写作时的快速查询工具，重点看优劣用法对比和拼写差异。
对像我这样不觉得自己擅长文字的人来说，这是一本极有用的汇编。它有很多优秀的写作建议、错误语法用例、差与好的用法和风格对比、易拼错词表、英美拼写差异等等。作为参考书尤其有用的是它的组织方式：写作时可快速查找某个主题；目录组织得好、细节适中，点击相关条目就能跳到独立成篇的章节，可单独读也可通读。强烈推荐。

This is an extremely useful compendium for those who–like me–do not consider themselves to be good with words. It has many excellent writing tips, examples of bad grammar usage, comparisons between poor and good usage including styles, lists of misspelled words, differences between UK and US spelling and much, much more. What makes it particularly useful as a reference is that it's organized in such a way that one can quickly look up a subject or topic whilst writing. The well organized and optimally detailed table of contents makes this possible. Just click on the relevant entry and one is linked to a well written section on said topic that can be read in isolation or as part of the complete work. Highly recommended.
这本书本质上是面向本科生的入门教材，不是高阶写作指南。

Clicking on "Licensing Information" and drilling down a few more links gets to the meat of what this is[1] (TL;DR: It's an archive of a Creative Commons licensed edition of an undergrad college text book. For those wondering who the target audience is: undergrads): > What is this? > First off, this is not the website for the original publisher. Instead, this is the archive of a small project by aschmitz to archive Creative Commons-licensed copies of all the books which were available online from a specific publisher at the end of 2012. (That publisher has asked to remain unnamed here. For more information, see the attribution page.) > That publisher is a textbook publisher, focusing on (mostly entry-level) college textbooks. From their beginning until the end of 2012, they licensed all of their books under a Creative Commons by-nc-sa 3.0 license, allowing anyone who so desired to copy them, give them away, or modify them, as long as they acknowledged the authors, released the copies under the same license, and didn't do so for commercial gain. This was an unusual model, but they hoped it would work. (They sold access to additional study materials, as well as copies of books that would fit well on e-readers.) > In late 2012, they decided that the process of giving away access to their textbooks online wasn't working, and decided to switch to a different model, requiring students to pay for access to the books starting in 2013. (At least initially, these fees ware rather cheap compared to normal textbook prices, but still not free.) > Because the books were still available under a Creative Commons license at the end of 2012, I downloaded them to have copies known to be available under a Creative Commons license. I then repackaged them so that they are available outside of the publisher's website, and can be used by anyone under the terms of their Creative Commons license.

读者对目标人群有疑问，感觉内容偏学术研究。
不确定这本书针对的是哪类“写作者”？看起来像是给做学术研究的人用的。
