Write It Right
ISBN: 9781514209974 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The author's main purpose in this book is to teach precision in writing; and of good writing (which, essentially, is clear thinking made visible) precision is the point of capital concern. It is attained by choice of the word that accurately and adequately expresses what the writer has in mind, and by exclusion of that which either denotes or connotes something else. As Quintilian puts it, the writer should so write that his reader not only may, but must, understand.

A Cynic Looks at Life
ISBN: 9781515090182 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The question "Does civilization civilize?" is a fine example of petitio principii, and decides itself in the affirmative; for civilization must needs do that from the doing of which it has its name. But it is not necessary to suppose that he who propounds is either unconscious of his lapse in logic or desirous of digging a pitfall for the feet of those who discuss; I take it he simply wishes to put the matter in an impressive way, and relies upon a certain degree of intelligence in the interpretation.

Bierce's dictionary, first published in 1906 as 'The Cynic's Word Book', brought his biting black humour to bear on spoof definitions of everyday words.
