Description
The Art of Editing continues to be the standard by which editing texts are judged, offering students the most comprehensive and up-to-date discussion of editing techniques and strategies available today.
Long viewed as the "classic" in the field of editing, The Art of Editing continues to evolve and meets the needs of today's students in this new, seventh edition. While more traditional newspaper editing forms the foundation of the text, attention also is placed on the areas in which students are finding jobs - corporate magazines, broadcasting, online media, public relations and advertising.
