"The world has changed since 2017, and The Chicago Manual of Style is changing to meet the moment. The eighteenth edition of this classic guide for writers, editors, and publishers is the most extensive revision in two decades. Every chapter has been reexamined with diversity and accessibility in mind, and major changes include updated and expanded coverage of pronoun use and inclusive language, revised guidelines on capitalization, a broader range of examples, new coverage of Indigenous languages, and expanded advice on making publications accessible to people with disabilities. The Manual's traditional focus on nonfiction has been expanded to include fiction and other creative genres on topics such as punctuation and dialogue, and its attention to the needs of self-published authors has also widened. The citation chapters have been thoroughly reorganized for the benefit of new and experienced users alike, and the chapter on mathematics has been dropped, its key contents covered elsewhere in the Manual, where they will be useful to both generalists and specialists. Evolving technologies-from open-access publishing models to citations of AI content-are covered throughout. And of course there are well-considered updates to familiar rules, including a number of changes intended to align more closely with real-world usage. As with each new edition, devotees of the Manual will find much to discover and ponder here"-- Provided by publisher.
