Who Cares About English Usage? by David Crystal
A revised edition of David Crystal's classic guide surveying some of the more amusing controversies within the English language. Written with much common sense, a sharp eye and keen wit, WHO CARES ABOUT ENGLISH USAGE will equip any reader with the skills and sensitivity to use language as a powerful tool - rather than being thwarted by its many idiosyncracies.

The author of many books for Penguin, including LANGUAGE PLAY, THE PENGUIN DICTIONARY OF LANGUAGE and (published in May 2000) WORDS ON WORDS, he is also the editor of THE CAMBRIDGE ENCYCLOPAEDIA.
