That is why for more than one hundred years The Chicago Manual of Style has remained the definitive guide for anyone who works with words. In the seven years since the previous edition debuted , we have seen an extraordinary evolution in the way we create and share knowledge. This seventeenth edition of The Chicago Manual of Style has been prepared with an eye toward how we find, create, and cite information that readers are as likely to access from their pockets as from a bookshelf. It offers updated guidelines on electronic workflows and publication formats, tools for PDF annotation and citation management, web accessibility standards, and effective use of metadata, abstracts, and keywords. It recognizes the needs of those who are self-publishing or following open access or Creative Commons publishing models. The citation chapters reflect the ever-expanding universe of electronic sources—including social media posts and comments, private messages, and app content—and also offer updated guidelines on such issues as DOIs, time stamps, and e-book locators. Other improvements are independent of technological change. The chapter on grammar and usage includes an expanded glossary of problematic words and phrases and a new section on syntax as well as updated guidance on gender-neutral pronouns and bias-free language. Key sections on punctuation and basic citation style have been reorganized and clarified. To facilitate navigation, headings and paragraph titles have been revised and clarified throughout. And the bibliography has been updated and expanded to include the latest and best resources available. This edition continues to reflect expert insights gathered from Chicago’s own staff and from an advisory board of publishing experts from across the profession. It also includes suggestions inspired by emails, calls, and even tweets from readers. No matter how much the means of communication change, The Chicago Manual of Style remains the ultimate resource for those who care about getting the details right. Review: An astounding wealth of detailed guidelines for working with words. Instructive and inspiring! - I was raised on printed books and, though readily acknowledging certain obvious advantages of online editions, I tend to prefer the accessibility of text which doesn't require electricity to be seen and read. In addition, I'm used to memorizing the physical placement of any subject matter within a given book, so I can get right to it without referring to the table of contents. Also, when I look up a particular topic, I often stray to the neighboring pages and end up learning more than I bargained for. It isn't quite so with the online format: you find your point of interest quicker, but it pops up out of context, and you can only see suggestions and links to related—and unrelated—topics. Printed books or online editions: either pick can be more viable under certain conditions, even though I think that books offer a sedate and deliberate experience more conducive to internalizing fresh knowledge. As to the book itself, it's a great help and a definitive guide to good writing, editing, proofreading, editing, publishing and what not. I also refer to A Comprehensive Grammar of the English Language by R. Quirk et al.; however, it tends to be rather metalinguistically oriented, while the Chicago Manual of Style sits more on the side of practical honing of text so that when it reaches the reader it is coherent, consistently and neatly structured, and it follows all formal and legal requirements of a particular type of publication. desertcart's processing of the order was hassle-free, the delivery—faster than I expected! Review: Wow! .... This is one awesome reference book - If you are into American English, no matter what style you may be using in your work, this tome should have a place on your bookself. The amount of useful information in it is staggering. After looking through the table of contents of version 17 of CMOS online I can easily see why the book gets such great ratings. What doesn't it cover? Is there a book that comes remotely close to being The Chicago Manual of Style's equal. I think not. It's the bible. Outside of specific things other styles employ (MLA, APA, AP Style, CSE Manual, Turabian. IEEE Editorial Style Manual .....) this book covers just about everything. The amount of stuff everyone can use is mindboggling, simply exhaustive and thorough to the nth degree. At $55 the book isn't cheap, but what great reference book is? I HIGHLY RECOMMEND BUYING IT. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #202,023 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #70 in Editing Writing Reference (Books) #224 in Creative Writing & Composition #263 in Words, Language & Grammar Reference | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 2,426 Reviews | ## Images ![The Chicago Manual of Style, 17th Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61KxE0fV7QL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An astounding wealth of detailed guidelines for working with words.
