Queen of business communication Dianna Booher has written a new book, Booher's Rules of Business Grammar: 101 Fast and Easy Ways to Correct the Most Common Errors (McGraw-Hill), which is precisely what the title promises. It also comes with an invitation to test your "grammar IQ" online at Booher'sRules.com. Of course, I couldn't resist that. I answered the 25 multiple-choice questions and some of them were tough. I figured I probably missed one or two, but what the hell, copy editors and proofreaders need to earn a living, too. Then, I got my score...76 percent! Now, I'm reading the book.
