The only book you will ever need for learning how to reference properly. A book that will help any school, collage or university student to cite and reference sources correctly in their essays and other types of work.
The chances of any "Plagiarism" will be very slim after reading this very informative and thoroughly revised book. The standard for referencing and citations.

I don't get much chance to refer to this book but it's very useful to have to hand. It's very concise but I have only ever needed to use a select few that are on the list, which eventually you remember for the next time, anyway. I think it's worth mentioning that even though the citation is written for you, there's an element of trying to incorporate it into your own style of writing to ensure it remains consistent.

I thought this book would give more general citation information. 3/4 of the book details Harvard Referencing style...who uses that?
