From the back cover

Simon says: "We all possess incredible talents, but so many of us are held back from fully realizing those talents by one common deficiency: poor written communication skills."

Using the clear, concise, and compelling language he advocates, Simon Hertnon quickly transforms you from being someone who merely communicates, to someone who understands why you communicate and why your audience does — or does not — respond as you wish.

The majority of this inspiringly short guidebook teaches you how to write successfully, but not before teaching you the all-important principles that apply to all forms of communication.

If Clear, Concise, Compelling is the antidote, what is the ailment? Simon is writing a provocative new book — aimed squarely at decision makers — on the full costs and implications of information overload. It's called The Price of Words: How we're spending more and learning less.
