For you technical writers out there (and any other writer, for that matter) a
great handbook to own is called "The Technical Writer's Handbook - Writing
with Style and Clarity" by Matt Young.  I purchased it through the following
address:

	University Science Books
	20 Edgehill Road
	Mill Valley, CA 94941

	(Sorry - can't find the scrap of paper with the phone # on it.)

It cost me $27.50 (including shipping).  It's well worth it.  I also have the
AP Stylebook and Libel Manual, the LA Times Stylebook, and Webster's Dictionary
of English Usage, but I find Young's book to be the most useful for the writing
I do.
