Mastering APA Style: Student's Workbook and Training Guide Fifth Edition

Notwithstanding, for those of us among the uninitiated, help is here in the form of this workbook. Mastering APA Style can be a tremendous resource if you remember two vitally important cavaets: (1)Don't try to discern the "logic" of why APA does the things it does, just do it the way they say to do it, and you won't get mixed up an frustrated. (2) The more you use APA, the better you will become. I am entering my second year of graduate school and I am convinced that it will take another two years to master all of the subtleties and nuances of the APA format.

This book, however, will make the ride much, much smoother!

The APA Style: Student Workbook and Training Guide is an excellent tool for any college student at any level. I am in my senior year of college and have struggled with my writing abilities from the beginning. Thanks to this Workbook, I was able to narrow down my weaknesses and actually work on my problematic areas like: grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure.

The spiral notebook style of this book comes in very handy when studying the book itself or using it as a reference book when writing papers. I recommend this book to anyone needing help with problematic writing errors or just need an APA Style Manual to assist with references.
