This is a great little book that gives you the basics of what you need to know to prepare your student paper using APA style. This book is great for any struggling college student who cannot follow the APA publication manual. The manual has the information needed for papers somewhere in the book but it is hard to find and even harder to understand. It provides the necessary and sufficient rules for APA that would help you write a paper.
- From quoting D. DiMauro
Target readers:
college student and professionals

From the publisher
This handbook is a quick and simplified guide to the APA writing style. It was developed as a condensed version of the official APA Publication Manual and designed to be utilized as a supplement to the actual guide.
The handbook is divided into three parts. Part one focuses on the mechanics of APA format as well as internal text citations; part two emphasizes the actual reference page entries; and part three provides a sample paper.

I purchased this book as an afterthought, but after reading the first three of four pages, it bacame one of my best investments. Ms. Houghton takes the reader step by step in setting your computer up in APA Style, then the remainder of the book is a quick reference for some of the most frequently used information. It's compact and now rides in my briefcase all of the time. I have several other learners at my workplace and they now have order copies as well. |

This handbook is ideal for those who want a quick refresher OR an easy introduction to and user guidelines for APA style writing. Sample citations and reference pages assist the reader with examples to follow. Current information is provided on how to document electronic/on-line sources as well. |

This is a great little book that summarizes the most important aspects of APA style. It is concise and easy to follow with just enough examples. I highly recommend you start here before buying the style guide which is more difficult to follow. If you do buy the style guide, get this book to work with and the larger more complicated books as a general reference. There are also many free online resources for APA style and some of them are excellent. |

Fabulous, Incredibly Easy, and Precise! Someone stole mine so I am having to purchase another. Don't go to Grad School without it! |
