The author speaks about the decline in the state of punctuation in countries like USA and the UK. Filled with humour, this guide is both informative and fun. The title of Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach To Punctuation comes from a joke, where a panda wakes into a cafe, eats a sandwich, then shoots people, and leaves.
The author warns readers to keep in mind these differences between British and American English. The book has a chapter on apostrophes. Readers will also find detailed information on the usage of question marks, dashes, colons, hyphens, commas, and more. The exclamation point is defined as a screamer, a gasper or a startler, and italics is said to be the print equivalent of underlining. Truss has elaborated on different types of brackets, such as square, round, and angle. Along with the usage of punctuation marks, the author has also included their history and other anecdotes. Many will be amazed to know how the question mark was invented, or how the comma came about. These stories add a different dimension to punctuation and grammar rules. The last chapter of Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach To Punctuation studies the negative impact that emails, the Internet, and instant messaging has had on punctuation.
