Getting to Grips with Grammar

Is it possible to master the basics of English grammar and to learn how to build correct complex sentences without drowning in too much abstract theory?
The authors of this book believe it is. Getting to Grips with Grammar offers you the tools to do so.
The book provides insight into the building blocks of English grammar and into the various word categories. It explains complex matters such as the tenses and modality in a transparent way and it shows you how to make your syntax more sophisticated. It also contains exercises, answers, and concise explanations.
Its target audience is wide and varied, including professionals who need English in a business context, EFL students in secondary and tertiary education, students majoring in subjects other than English who are required to write papers or give presentations in English, and both teachers of English and native speakers simply seeking to revise their grammar.
