A great book; however I find it unfortunate that a book that teaches readers how to write features some editing errors.

True, that's definitely the book's greatest weakness, though it can be easily fixed by some extra rounds of editing. Thanks for the comment!

I want this book! Thanks for the review. It's quite ironic that it gives guidelines on How to Write Smarter but neglected a bit on the proofreading/editing of its own.

Yes, that's certainly an unfortunate aspect, but one that's easy to fix, at least. Thanks for the comment!
