New and revised features: â€¢ up-to-date advice on indexes, inclusive language, reference systems and preliminary pages â€¢ a chapter devoted to on-screen copy-editing â€¢ guidance on digital coding and publishing in other media such as e-books â€¢ updated to take account of modern typesetting and printing technology â€¢ an expanded section on law books â€¢ an essential tool for new and experienced copy-editors, working freelance or in-house.
