A journalist/editor and an educator join forces to bring grammar back into style. These two authors believe that our grammar can affect the way we feel about ourselves and the way others react to us. They maintain that a person's choice of words reflects his or her self-image and that the poor use of grammar can lead to negative reactions and responses from others. Grammar is an extension of ourselves. Correct grammar can be used to maximize our potential and aid us in the pursuit of our goals by reflecting self-confidence and self-competency.
