What I dont't like about the book is that it tells you to bow towards
Redmond and shout "I'm not worthy!" three times, each time you mention a
Microsoft product. Apart from that it contains a lot of sound advice in
an easily accessible format. I also have the Chicago Manual of Style on
my desk, but I usually first check Uncle Bill's opus, because it's
easier to find things and it's targeted specifically at the kind of
writing I do.
