Garner liberates English from two extremes: both from the hidebound "purists" who mistakenly believe that split infinitives and sentence-ending prepositions are malfeasances and from the linguistic relativists who believe that whatever people say or write must necessarily be accepted.
The judgments here are backed up not just by a lifetime of study but also by an empirical grounding in the largest linguistic corpora ever available.
Garner has made extensive use of big data to include ratios of standard terms as compared against variants in modern print sources.
No other resource provides as comprehensive, reliable, and empirical a guide to current English usage.
If youre concerned with writing and editing, GMEU will prove invaluable to you.
Garner illustrates with actual examples, cited with chapter and verse, all the linguistic blunders that modern writers and speakers are prone to, whether in word choice, syntax, phrasing, punctuation, or pronunciation.

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"This is obviously a fantastic resource. However, I cannot recommend the app as a means to access it. Many of the links in the app are broken. As a result, there are some passages you simply cannot view using the app. For $25+ app that's a deal breaker, in my opinion."
Evan Boeshans
"Great app making the book so accessible."
