Product Description
This handbook is a quick and simplified guide to the APA writing style. It was developed as a condensed version of the official APA Publication Manual and designed to be utilized as a supplement to the actual guide.
The handbook is divided into three parts. Part one focuses on the mechanics of APA format as well as internal text citations; part two emphasizes the actual reference page entries; and part three provides a sample paper.

 One of my best investments ... ever March 17, 2006

I purchased this book as an afterthought, but after reading the first three of four pages, it bacame one of my best investments. Ms. Houghton takes the reader step by step in setting your computer up in APA Style, then the remainder of the book is a quick reference for some of the most frequently used information. It's compact and now rides in my briefcase all of the time. I have several other learners at my workplace and they now have order copies as well.
Excellent... makes APA style relatively pain free! May 27, 2007

This is a great little book that summarizes the most important aspects of APA style. It is concise and easy to follow with just enough examples. I highly recommend you start here before buying the style guide which is more difficult to follow. If you do buy the style guide, get this book to work with and the larger more complicated books as a general reference. There are also many free online resources for APA style and some of them are excellent.

This book was more user friendly than the APA Manual.
Bought both, but have only used the APA The Easy Way so far.

Confused and going crazy trying to use APA style? Are you a high school or college student who struggles to get APA formatting correct in your papers? If you can't find the answers in the big APA style guide, this is the book for you!! As a college professor, I have recommended this book to all my students, especially undergraduates, who need to know just the basics of APA style. For about $10, you have all the info you need. Get this book!
