English for Journalists is an invaluable guide not only to the basics of English, but to those aspects of writing, such as reporting speech, house style and jargon, which are specific to the language of journalism.

This revised and updated edition includes:
* a discussion of the recent debates surrounding the use of standard and idiomatic English
* the correct use and spelling of foreign words
* a chapter on broadcast journalism
* an updated glossary of journalistic terms

Es un buen libro, sencillo y claro. Ideal para extranjeros. El diseño es pulcro y sin parafernalias. Además, llegó en buen estado pese a ser de segunda mano.
