What? No comments on this book from people who help and teach others to write?

This book provides a provocative, easy to understand basic premise:

The content of what you put in an essay has no value unless what you say is new to the reader.

And the book gives 5 NewView Options to show how to make something that is old into something new:

reverse
add
subtract
substitute
rearrange

Furthermore, this book shows that published essays invariably use the Reverse NewView Option.

Extremely interesting is that the book also shows the NewView Reverse in constant use in short stories and novels.

No takers on this?

Too cautious to learn something new?
