"I don't know a single copywriter whose work would not be improved by reading this book. And that includes me." --David Ogilvy "This book succeeds on two levels. For beginners, it offers a clear, comprehensive guide to the business of and techniques used in advertising copywriting. And for professionals behind a typewriter, the book is a valuable back-to-basics tool that should be given a prominent slot on the bookshelf."--The Los Angeles Times "The Copywriter's Handbook should become essential equipment not only for young writers but also those in supervisory positions and on the client side." --Ad Day "Bob Bly's step-by-step guide remains, in my view, the best single volume available on the subject of copywriting. Its advice is down-to-earth and practical." --Roger Parker, Audio Times
