Publisher Description
Perfect grammar? No spelling error? And still readers complain they have a hard time reading your prose. The remedy? Think Reader! Readers are like you and me, people with limited resources in memory, attention, and knowledge. THINK READER reveals what in your writing makes your readers stumble, what in your sentences draws excessive brain resources, what in your words generates ambiguity and lack of clarity. THINK READER is the essential resource for clear writing, a skill much in demand for those who write papers, reports, brochures and documents for people less experts than they are.

Hooked!
I glanced at the book just after receiving it. Then I started reading. I was hooked. Before I knew it, I was on page 75! Jean-Luc Lebrun has done a brilliant job of making learning how to write enjoyable as well as informative. His examples of both popular and scientific writing are wonderful, and all is buttressed by scientific principles of memory and attention. I consider myself an expert at memory, attention, and writing, but I still learned a lot. I recommend this to my students, my colleagues, and to everyone.
