Eats, Shoots & Leaves

I'm not sure if Lynne Truss's book will help my puncutation, but it is the most entertaining punctuation book I have read. If you are looking for a reference book though, you are out of luck. There is no index. Even the Table of Contents is not very clear.

The book is divided into chapters which deal with various punctuation rules and common errors, but I suppose we are just meant to remember them all. For example, if I want to look up how to punctuate: There are two z's in jazz, I would have to search through the whole chapter on apostrophes.

Thank goodness for Strunk and White.
