When we embarked on our respective careers as freelance writers we knew how to research and we knew how to write.But nothing really prepared us for the experience of life in the marketplace—approaching editors, being rejected, getting published and finally being paid.
As teachers, each year we looked for the book that would provide our students with a good overview of writing feature articles for a range of publications. We wanted a book that was pitched at people like us, with a keen interest in writing and a desire to break into the industry.
We wanted to read interviews with people who write, buy and publish feature articles. We wanted a book that distilled everything that the beginning writer of feature articles needs to know. Here it is.

The Articles in Polish-English Translation - Przedimek w języku angielskim by:
Christian Douglas Kozłowska

Książka przeznaczona jest dla osób studiujących i używających języka angielskiego, a  dotyczy jednego z najtrudniejszych dla Polaków problemów:  użycia lub opuszczenia przedimka.   Zasady podane w książce ilustrowane są cytatami z tekstów angielskich.  Poznanie zasad użycia przedimków  ułatwiają również przykłady w języku polskim  i ich angielskie ekwiwalenty. Książka zawiera ćwiczenia kontrolne wraz z kluczem,  przez co może być przydatna także w autodydaktyce.

This book is specially suitable  for Polish-speaking students, though most of the explanations and examples are given in English.

Although almost a decade has passed since the second edition of this work was published, this encyclopedia's reputation as a high-quality scholarly work has not diminished. Guided by an advisory board comprising leading researchers (including eight Nobel laureates), editor in chief Meyers (Ramtech, Inc.) used a peer review process that produced over 780 articles written by experts. The coverage in this third edition has expanded to include molecular biology, biochemistry, and biotechnology.
