Description

Now in its sixth printing, the Manual has become the standard guide for the scholar, graduate student, and professional writer on preparing theses, dissertations, and manuscripts of articles and books. In addition to explaining the mechanics of documentation, including a full description of the recommendations of the MLA, the Manual discusses publishing procedures and presents all the information a practicing scholar needs to submit manuscripts. The Manual also addresses anonymous-submission policies, modern typesetting and printing techniques, and the effect of word processing on publishing.Unencumbered by information intended primarily for editors, the MLA manual will appeal to writers who find the Chicago Manual of Style unwieldy....The prose is exact, and the organization, index, and examples are most helpful. ...A standard source.
