The wry observation attributed to Ge***e Bernard Shaw that "England and America are two countries divided by a common language" finds *** in The Cambridge Guide to English Usage. Author Peters, of Macquarie University in Australia, provides evidence that their common language also divides Ca*** and Australia from the other countries.

The Cambridge Guide to English Usage is unique in the extent of its coverage of all the major varieties of English and in the degree to which it is based on corpus evidence, that is, on the ***ysis of vast collecti*** of actual written and spoken language in each of the varieties under study. Peters' judicious use of these corpora and her evident familiarity with the extensive li***ture of past and contemporary language studies give The Cambridge Guide to English Usage an authority unmatched by any other usage guide.' Sidney Landau '... invaluable ...' The Good Book Guide '... an ideal reference tool for fiction and non-fiction writers.' Ink 'There are excellent entries on matters of grammar, punctuation and style. Typical of these entries are those for relative clauses and the subjunctive, the colon and quotation marks, dangling participles and the sequence of tenses. These entries are very detailed and comprehensive, and written with great clarity.' Australian Book Review 'The A-Z format makes it easy to look up questi*** of word use, rules of punctuation and even whether (for example) to italicise your Latin abbreviati***. If you are a working writer, this is the book to keep by you to solve all your tricky questi***.' The Writing Magazine 'Users of the book will benefit from the author's having drawn on an enormously wide range of recent research and investigation into current usages and historic backgrounds.' Contemporary Review '... refreshingly rational ... You'll warm to her.' Sunday Telegraph 'This is a beautifully produced book, a joy to look at and to use ... All in all, a delightful book ... once you open it and find what you are looking for, there is an almost irresistible temptation to go on to dip into something else, and then something more, and so on ... I shall recommend it to people who ask me questi*** about usage as well as to people who think they have all the answers.' The Canberra Editor 'The Cambridge Guide to English Usage will answer ... thousands of ... questi*** on usage ...' Writer's News
