Style is a vital part of any writing project. As with many other things, appropriate styles vary between different genres of document. It’s important to be aware of things like the appropriate level of formality to use and the preferred methods of citation.
Other elements of style to pay attention to are choices about sentence structure, when to use active voice vs. passive voice, effective transitions, varied word choice, and even choice of pronouns when describing people and professions in general cases.
The chapter provides in-depth examples and comparisons of all of the above, and several other things.
