Now in its 5th edition, the manual offers vital information to writers in the religious and general markets, including many topics that are not addressed in other style manuals.

- An expanded “Word List,” with more than sixty additional entries.
- An expanded “Capitalization of Religious Terms” list, with more than six hundred words added.
- New sections: artificial intelligence; ancient monetary values; colloquial English; dyslexia issues; passive voice; Spanish style; using autocorrect, spellcheckers, and grammar programs; abbreviations for Roman Catholic orders; and more.
This book still adheres to Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, 12th Edition and has been thoroughly updated to conform to the new Chicago Manual of Style, 18th Edition.
