Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: APA handbook Comment: This book is very helpful but confuses me at times since it has so many small mini indexes and sections, but besides that very helpful. Customer Rating: Summary: Scavenger Hunt, agreed. NEEDS EXAMPLES. Comment: I agree with the previous review. This 'APA Bible' is complex and not well organized. The sections are listed in such a way that if you happen to be looking for something simple, like how to do a citation for a book, that can be found easily. However, if you are in the book section, it is not easy to then find how to do a citation for a book chapter from a unique author or how to cite a textbook, 3rd ed. As such, I found the book to be cumbersome, even after some serious time working with it in graduate school. One suggestion for a major improvement would be to include a large section (or a supplemental guide) with a grouping of papers that are examples. These examples could cover a broad range of paper types. It could also highlight common errors in the use of APA style and how to correct them - both within text and in citations. Generally speaking, this book is fine for a reference tool, once the reader already knows APA style. It is quite insufficient for a student who is trying to learn and write simultaneously. As such, most students make use of on-line tools and quick reference guides, rather than consulting the manual. APA, please provide assistance for beginning users. Thanks! Customer Rating: Summary: A must have for any higher education student Comment: I never knew I didn't know how to write until I got this book. I have had to use APA style for my undergrad degree and didn't have it, but starting graduate school, I found I really needed it! Now, if I have any questions about how to put together a paper, I have a manual that is considerably more words than my thesis, yet not quite dissertation length, to guide me through my errant ways of writing. Customer Rating: Summary: APA Manuel Comment: This manaul is very helpful to reference the many in's and out's of APA formatting for research papers, including how to cite references from the internet. Customer Rating: Summary: Very useful Comment: Very useful and to the point, with clear examples, helped me a lot with my MA thesis. More Reviews
