I puchased this book to support a level 4 literacy qualification. It explains the principles of English in a very clear way. It has also been an excellent support to my daughter who is studying A level English Language. Brilliant.

Most grammar books either lose themselves in prescriptive (or worse, proscriptive) admonitions, which quickly become outdated or 'quaint', or are so badly laid out and presented that they are consulted only by the truly desperate. Ron Simpson's book, on the other hand, manages to be entertaining, informative and well-structured. Consultations shouldn't present too many difficulties, as a result.

I bought this book so I could help my Brazilian friend with her grammar. The book was absolutely awful. I really do not know who it was written for. Maybe it is for qualified teachers but I couldn't understand a word of it. There was no structure to it. I have written two books so I have some level of skill when it comes to writing but seriously I could not work this book out. I can speak Portuguese and Spanish to an ok standard too, so I have a little understanding of language structure. I do not know how a foreign person could understand this. I have given this a 2 star and not a 1 star as I wonder if it is me missing something. But I would not recommend it to foreign people.
