Stop word-wrap dividing words

body { word-wrap: break-word;}

I've been using that code (above) to fit the text in the body into it's container. However what I don't like about it, is that it breaks up words.

Is there another way where it will not break up words and only line break after or before a word?

EDIT: This is for use within a UIWebView.

May be a bit late but you can add this css to stop word breaks:

.element {
    -webkit-hyphens: none;
    -moz-hyphens:    none;
    -ms-hyphens:     none;
    hyphens:         none;
}
