2008-11-15 Not for what I was looking

I am a native English speaker. I am also quite educated and know how to write English to a high standard. Judging from what I read and hear around me every day, my grammar is significantly better than most.

What this book does not really give advice on, and what I really wanted, is not how to write, but how to write well. How one can persuade colleagues halfway around the world to work effectively on one's behalf? Most importantly, how one can avoid unintentionally offending others?

If on the other hand, you are a non-native speaker, then this is probably suitable for you, and I apologise to the book's author for my poor review.
