約瑟夫．威廉斯Joseph M. Williams

芝加哥大學英文系教授，精通英文語法與修辭。《英文寫作的魅力》是威廉斯在芝加哥大學執教多年的心血結晶。在英文寫作這塊領域，威廉斯為箇中翹楚。他極力捍衛且主張兩大基本原則：(1)寫作清晰是件好事；(2)寫作清晰，任何人都做得到。他的代表著作如下：

• Origins of the English Language: A Social and Linguistic History. Free Press.

• Style: Lessons in Clarity and Grace, 11th Edition. revised by Joseph Bizup. Longman.
