Average Rating: 
Rating:  - fantastic reference, very thorough
I'm an ESL teacher. I have students who ask me all kinds of grammar questions that I don't know the answers to. This is where I go to find them. The book is pretty dry (hey, its grammar) and technical, but that's what makes it such a good resource.
Rating:  - Grammar Bible
A must have! This book has saved me from looking through all the other little books that I have!
Rating: - More than it's meant to be (that's a good thing!)
This book was clearly created to be a textbook for pre-service teachers about how to teach English grammar. There is so much information in this book, though, I'm pretty sure that it would be impossible to cram it all in to one course. It's an absolutely indispensable reference. I return to it again and again. Every serious ESL/EFL teacher should have this book.
Rating: - The "why" of English, in detail
You don't have to be a teacher of English as a Second or Foreign Language (ESL/EFL) to use this book. You do have to be very interested in how to write and speak correct English, and in exceptions to rules and the patterns behind them. The book is more than a desk reference, but not meant to be read cover-to-cover. The curious reader can open at almost any chapter and learn something new about daily English usage. The authors assume knowledge of some grammatical terms -- look them up in a dictionary ... Read More
Rating: - My textbook
This item was used by me as a textbook in a graduate grammar course at the university. Excellent book, complete with examples, definitions, and exercises to practice the grammatical concepts learned.
