One-quarter the length and price of conventional textbooks, this popular introduction to technical writing teaches the essentials with remarkable economy, clarity, and authority. The book is divided into two parts.
I ordered this book for a class. Nothing wrong with the book itself; very informative.
Not much to say, my son found it helpful as recommended by his instructor. He was glad to have it.
As a teacher of professional writing and a former technical writer, I find this book is just enough for my students. It supplements the materials I create for my students with clear, concise discussions of the main formats used in professional settings.
