How to Write Clearly is a short, practical guide to plain prose, built around a handful of recurring causes of ambiguity and a definite remedy for each. It targets sentence-level problems such as misplaced modifiers, vague pronouns and muddled word order, drawing examples from parliamentary speeches, newspaper writing and public resolutions. It is a rulebook rather than a style manual: it does not cover structure, argument or voice, and it says so. Readers who want a compact, prescriptive fix for murky sentences get more from it than those looking for a broad writing course.

How to Write Clearly is a book about avoiding ambiguity in writing. It points out a few causes of unclear writing that come up again and again, and it suggests a definite remedy for each one.
The book looks at ambiguity that comes from bad arrangement of words. It also covers the misuse of single words and confused thought. These last two causes can't be fixed by definite rules, so the book doesn't give them prominent attention.
Its examples come from speeches in Parliament, newspaper narratives and articles, and resolutions at public meetings. It traces the obscurity in these to the neglect of some dozen simple rules.
