THE Style Book is a guide which is addressed to all writers,
editors, and public servants who prepare manuscripts for
publication by the Government Printing Office. Since 1958
the Style Book has found wide acceptance, both inside and
outside the Public Service which is reflected in the number of
reprints made since that date. This new edition incorporates
the latest amendments based on experience gained since first
published. Chapters dealing with the preparation of copy,
abbreviations, and compound words have been revised; new
material has been added to the chapters dealing with common
names of animals and plants, errors in the use of English in
official writing, and terms used in printing. The introduction
of metrication has required a new chapter as well as amend
ments throughout the book.
