Harry Evans has edited everything from the urgent files of
battlefield reporters to the complex thought processes of Henry
Kissinger, and he has been knighted for his services to journalism.
In Do I Make Myself Clear?,his definitive guide to writing well,
Evans brings his indispensable insight to the art of clear
communication. The right words are oxygen to our ideas, but the
digital era, with all of its TTYL, LMK and WTF, has been cutting
off that oxygen flow. The compulsion to be precise has vanished
from our culture, and in writing of all kinds we see a trend
towards more - more speed and more information, but far less
clarity. Evans provides practical examples of how editing and
rewriting can make for better communication, even in the digital
age. DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR? is an essential text, and one that
will provide every reader an editor at their shoulder.
