Precis writing

Precis Writing by R. Dhillon is a practical guide to the art of précis: how to read a passage closely, pick out its central idea, cut away repetition and examples, and rewrite it briefly in your own words with a suitable title. It explains the rules step by step and gives passages for practice. Précis carries heavy marks in the CSS English (Précis & Composition) paper and the English paper of Punjab PMS, and this book is a useful companion for both.
