Between You & Me

Mary Norris, long time copyeditor for the New Yorker, takes us on an engaging journey through grammatical concerns in Between You & Me. She looks at spelling, the lack of a gender neutral third person singular pronoun, use of a myriad of punctuation types, and more.    She keeps it from devolving into a dry and boring lecture about grammar by interjecting stories from her own life and work experience as illustration.
