It takes a few minutes to understand the layout of the book to lookup things, but once you get it, it's easy. I think this book helped raise me a letter grade in my course. Anyone taking a journalism course with a strict professor or planning on entering journalism should get a copy. My textbook had a reference in it, but it was ...             Associated Press Broadcast News Handbook1 review Brad Kalbfeld McGraw-Hill, 2000 Great Companion for the Broadcast Journalist Most journalists would be familiar with the Associated Press Stylebook and Briefing on Media Law, better known as the "AP Stylebook". Well, this is the broadcast version. The back half of this book will look very familiar to those of us who have seen the stylebook, but the front half is all new, giving good tips on how to write good broadcast stories. As a broadcast journalism student myself, I ...             Associated Press Stylebook: And Label Manual 199722 reviews Associated Press Associated Pr, 1997 Wouldn't write without it Also know as the AP style guide, this book should be every copywriter's and journalist's bookshelf. This is the definitive guide to punctuation, grammar and writing style for magazine and newspaper articles as well as most business writing. And it is vastly different from the style of writing most of us learned in school, which follows the Chicago Manual of Style. If you are thinking about ...             Associated Press Guide to Photojournalism (Associated Press Handbooks)11 reviews Brian Horton McGraw-Hill, 2000 "A Good Primer on Photojournalism (PJ)" "Associated Press Guide to Photojournalism", Brian Horton, McGraw-Hill NY, 2nd. ed. 2001, ISBN 0-07-136387-4, SC 223 pgs. Sports photo editor at A-P since 1971, Horton has many credits including 2 books on news photography. This text explains PJ (picture story) - how a photographer "sees the story" is a skill requiring experience, insight, anticipation, inventiveness, & a passion. Often ...             The Associated Press Guide to Punctuation6 reviews Basic Books, 2003 The gold standard For journalists, the AP style guides are pretty much the gold standard (or silver, depending on your economic policy leanings). With so much terrible grammar and punctuation, and often lack of punctuation, present in today's world, this is a must-have for aspiring writers, especially journalists.             Associated Press Guide to News Writing: The Resource for Professional Journalists22 reviews Cappon Arco, 1999 This author is the epitome of witty Even if you're not interested in journalism - if all that you're looking for is a fun read - then pick up this book. He takes examples of good work and explains why it's good, as well as poor work and points out the deficiencies in a way this is both entertaining and enlightening. I don't agree with all of his opinions, but I very much enjoyed the book nonetheless.             Associated Press Reporting Handbook2 reviews Jerry Schwartz McGraw-Hill, 2001 Behind the Scenes of a Story The "Associated Press Reporting Handbook" is not so much a how-to handbook as it is a series of glimpses behind the scenes to see how reporters work and what it takes to create the magic that makes it into print. Rather than acting as an all-knowing instructor, Jerry Schwartz treats the reader as a fellow journalist who might be able to learn from the other reporters he introduces. The majority ...             Breaking News: How the Associated Press Has Covered War, Peace, and Everything Else3 reviews Associated Press Princeton Architectural Press, 2007 A book worth reading This book is an important reminder of the tireless and many times anonymous job AP reporters do on a daily basis. The book is filled with rich details about the wire service. It's really a history of American journalism.             Associated Press Sports Writing Handbook2 reviews Steve Wilstein McGraw-Hill, 2001 Basic Introduction to Sports Writing This handbook is a very basic introduction to sports writing. It's written at what appears to be a junior high/high school level for kids looking at sportscasting as a career. I was expecting something a little more comprehensive, something along the lines of an MLA styleguide...But, then again, it is "just" sports writing. Doesn't take a genius, I guess!             The Word an Associated Press Guide to Good News Writing 19911 review Rene J. Cappon Associated Pr, 1982 "The Word" is an invaluable source on how to write well. "The Word" was first lended to me by my editor who told me when doing so that it was lent only to select company. After reading it, I knew why. It is an invaluable source of how to write efficiently and effectively no matter what the subject -- not just in journalism. By including lucid examples of the pinnacles and pitfalls of tone, usage and color Cappon masterfully coaches the ...             THE WORD: An Associated Press Guide To Good News Writing1 review Rene J Cappon The Associated Press, 1989 Correct Title:"The Word" You may assume this is a religious tract from the title, but it is instead an excellent book on clear, concise writing by an Associated Press editor. A quick and inspiring read that will help tighten up your prose. Out of print, but not expensive.             The Associated Press Guide to Internet Research and Reporting1 review Frank Bass Basic Books, 2002 Only worthwhile if you've never used a computer I was extremely disappointed with this book. This book is aimed either at people who have never used a computer, or at first-graders. The fact that most first graders have already used computers and the Internet probably won't help matters. Coming from the Associated Press (who publishes other worthwhile books), one would guess that this is a fairly detailed guidebook on how to cite online ...             Stylebook 2005 Associated Pr, 2005 The spiral-bound style manual is an essential handbook for all writers, editors, students and public relations specialists.             The Ophthalmic Assistant: A Text for Allied and Associated Ophthalmic Personnel2 reviews Harold A. Stein, Raymond M. Stein Mosby, 2006 Couldn't do without it! I bought this book, actually I purchased the older version and later the new version, to study for my COA. It was more than enough for that!! Later I used it as the foundation for the study for my COT. I am happy to say that I passed that last year also! You simply can't do without this book!!!!             Reflexology and Associated Aspects of Health: A Practitioner's Guide Adrian Seager North Atlantic Books, 2006 Written in simple language and based on years of private practice experience, Reflexology and Associated Aspects of Health is aimed at reflexologists, complementary therapists, and interested laypersons.
