Many stylebooks and manuals explain writing, but before the release ten years ago of Elsie Myers Stainton's The Fine Art of Copyediting, few addressed the practices and problems of editing. This handbook has guided users through the editing process for books and journals, with tips on how to be diplomatic when recommending changes, how to edit notes and bibliographies, how to check proofs, and how to negotiate the ethical, intellectual, and emotional problems characteristic of the editorial profession. Now featuring solid advice on computer editing and a new chapter on style, as well as more information on references, bibliographies, indexing, and bias-free writing, The Fine Art of Copyediting, Second Edition offers the same wealth of information that prompted William Safire to commend the first edition in The New York Times Magazine. Complete with helpful checklists for the manuscript, proof, and index stages of book production, as well as an excellent bibliography of reference works useful to the copyeditor, The Fine Art of Copyediting, Second Edition is an indispensable desk reference for writers and editors confronting a host of questions each day. Why use the word "people" instead of "persons?" What precautions are necessary for publishers to avoid libel suits? How can an editor win an author's trust? What type fonts facilitate the copyediting process? How does computer editing work? For experienced and novice copyeditors, writers and students, this is the source for detailed, step-by-step guidance to the entire editorial process.Binding Type: Paperback

Subtle, great dog toy design!
Size: Large
These things are amazing. Stuff them with peanut butter and treats and freeze them of course, but football spike them across the yard to drive your overly hyped dog nuts! And the hole allows you to safely pry it out of a tug battle , just a great design! And it can bobble across a small living space without getting lost like a ball would. Love it!

Treats fall out way to easy
Size: Large
Kinda sorta awful at holding treats in it, they just fall out without my dog even having to touch it really. I spread peanut butter on the inside of the toy and freeze it..works much better that way, nay, works amazing that way. I got this toy to stimulate his brain, so he’s either much smarter than every other dog or the treats fall out too easy..I believe it’s the ladder.

Great for enrichment treats for dogs

Great product and durable. We fill them with wet dog food and freeze it then give it to our dogs as enrichment treats. They love it. It’s super easy to use and strong against dogs bites and chewing

Keeps My Dog Busy and Happy!
Size: Large
I bought this 2-pack of treat-dispensing toys for my large dog, and they’ve been a total win. The rubber is strong enough to hold up against heavy chewing, but soft enough that it doesn’t hurt his teeth. I like that it’s large, so I can fill it with kibble or small training treats, and it keeps him entertained for a long time.
The best part is how much mental stimulation it gives—he really has to work to get the treats out, which helps with his energy and boredom. I also noticed it slows down his eating when I use it for kibble, which is a huge bonus since he usually gulps food too quickly.
Getting two in a pack is great value. I keep one stuffed in the freezer with peanut butter for a cool snack on hot days and use the other for everyday play. Both clean easily with warm water and soap.
✅ Durable and safe rubber
✅ Keeps dogs busy and mentally stimulated
✅ Doubles as a slow feeder
✅ Great value for a 2-pack
Highly recommend if you want something affordable, durable, and actually fun for your dog!

Best Balls Ever!!!
Size: Medium
These are the best balls ever! We have 2 very active ball loving dogs and these bounce very well and they actually hold up with active play and chewing. They still look brand new after daily use for months!
