Book Review

Between You and I: A Little Book of Bad English covers roughly two hundred words, phrases, and expressions that are frequently misused, mispronounced, or misspelled. It explains the correct usage and gives real-world examples from people who really should know better: writers, journalists, broadcasters, and other public figures. The book is arranged alphabetically, with a couple of paragraphs describing each entry and the common error attached to it. Includes frequently confused words, redundant expressions, irregular plurals, and misunderstood clichΓ©s. There is an introduction written by senior BBC television and radio journalist John Humphrys.
