In Part

Hey GM, when writing an article about a publication, but not writing it verbatim; is it okay for me to write: "following is the publication written in part." I say, yes, that it would be fine as long as I'm not writing the story word for word. What say you? Bien merci, T

Re: In Part

Ooooh, I'm not keen on your version. I would prefer to see something like:

The publication states/highlights/documents/mentions/covers/outlines/offers a view on/provides insight into...

Or a construction using the term 'paraphrase'.
