This is yet another book that was necessary for college (they always make you purchase so many!). I will say that it did help me to hone my writing skills that were necessary to receive high marks in all of my classes going forward. Showing proper documentation was always my weakest point, and this book showed me how to do so properly in a way that was easy for me to understand.

Literally the most boring text book I’ve ever read.
