By turns gleefully precise and happily contrarian,this is a highly opinionated guide to bettercommunication. In Literally, the Best LanguageBook Ever, author Paul Yeager attacks with alinguistic scalpel the illogical expressions andmisappropriated meanings that are socommonplace and annoying in everydayconversation. Identifying hundreds ofcommon language miscues, Yeager providesan astute look at the world of words and howwe abuse them every day.For the grammar snobs looking for any port ina storm of subpar syntax, or the self-confessedrubes seeking a helping hand, this witty guide cantransform even the least literate into the epitomeof eloquence.
