A witty and well-organized style guide, one so nicely written it's a pleasure to read. Because Dreyer clearly sought to write something both useful and entertaining, he occasionally risks providing examples that are clever and funny but not always clear, at least to me. More than once I found myself having to re-read to sort out which line was the mistake and which was meant to be the improved version, and why. And I'm sure the long section on commas was enlightening but I fear not likely, in my case, to stick. Thankfully I have one or two colleagues who can help!
