In every age, writers and editors need guidance through the thickets of English usage. Although some language issues are perennial (infer versus imply), many others spring anew from the well of English. Bryan Garner answers the thousands of questions that bedevil those who care about the language.
Garner, Bryan A.: - Bryan A. Garner, editor in chief of Black's Law Dictionary, is the author of more than twenty books, including The Law of Judicial Precedent; Garner's Modern English Usage; The Chicago Guide to Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation; Quack This Way: David Foster Wallace and Bryan A.

Counting Black's Law Dictionary and his other books, Garner is among the world's most widely cited legal scholars and has been cited by every appellate court, state and federal, in the country.
