Introduction
On Writing Well: The Classic Guide to Writing Nonfiction is a broadly sweeping writers
in any nonfiction genre: from science to sports, travel to technology, memoir to
management. If you expect books about writing to be boring, condescending, or
riddled with obscure grammatical rules, you'll be pleasantly surprised by this one.
Body
This classic reference encompasses the entire process of writing. Chapters address
a spectrum of central issues: principles, methods, forms, and attitudes. The final
chapters on attitude discuss psychological aspects of writing, embracing the sound of
your authentic voice, enjoyment, fear, and confidence. The style he preaches is direct
and simple, free of clutter, the product of one ruthless pruning and self-restraint.
Conclusion
My one quibble with the book is this, I do not agree with Zinsser's advice on dealing
with gendered pronouns and he sporadically refers to collective humanity as “man”.
However, beyond that I find his advice flawless and his writing an excellent model of
the principles he espouses.

Expectation
Philippine students reading comprehension is low, because they are more used
to narrative instead of informative text materials.
