What could be a tedious subject is turned into a rather entertaining and informative one in Eats, Shoots & Leaves: the Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation by Lynne Truss. Punctuation has never been more interesting than when Truss is the one writing about it. From those unsure how to use all the little dots and squiggles on the keyboard to those with absolute certainty, this is the book for you.
Nutshell: Punctuation has come under attack! "Apple’s for sale", "Bobs’ Motors", and "George,s Grocery" are just the beginning. (And if you don’t see anything wrong with those above, check again!)
