- write a title and an abstract that will attract attention and be read

- choose the correct tenses and style
- satisfy the requirements of editors and reviewers
This edition has two completely new chapters covering machine translation and using AI tools (e.g. chatbots, paraphrasers, editing tools) to improve and correct the English of a text.
