This book is different. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough analysis of human stories based on real-world events in which what people knew about grammar made things worse but could have made them better, the book shows how what we know about grammar can make all the difference. Knowledge of grammar can make the world better by enabling us to encounter English with grammatical knowledge with more kindness and curiosity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter One gives a practical, easy-to-use answer to the question 'What is grammar?' according to what is possible, meaningful, and in use in global English today. Chapters 2-5 offer scenes from four common places in which what we know about grammar can make all the difference: the classroom (schools); the coffee shop (public places); the courtroom (sites of legal decisions); and the copy room (workplaces). Through human stories and responses to them, these scenario-based chapters show how grammar knowledge and curiosity can allow us to resolve similar situations in ways that make the world a little more kind and fair for everyone. The concluding chapters summarizes the case for grammar for good in real-world encounters and offers further fun facts, including: current distinctions between human and AI grammar, and how to explore their differences; and other scenarios in which grammar may play an important role.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLaura Aull\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of English and Director of the Writing Program at the University of Michigan, USA.
