Technical Writing : A Practical Guide for Engineers and Scientists Paperback
by Phillip A. (The Pennsylvania State University, Malvern, USA) Laplante
Part of the What Every Engineer Should Know series
Paperback
Description
Engineers and scientists of all types are often required to write reports, summaries, manuals, guides, and so forth.
While these individuals certainly have had some sort of English or writing course, it is less likely that they have had any instruction in the special requirements of technical writing.
Filling this void, Technical Writing: A Practical Guide for Engineers and Scientists enables readers to write, edit, and publish materials of a technical nature, including books, articles, reports, and electronic media.
Written by a renowned engineer and widely published technical author, this guide complements the traditional writer's reference manuals and other books on technical writing.
It helps readers understand the practical considerations in writing technical content. Drawing on his own work, the author presents many first-hand examples of writing, editing, and publishing technical materials.
These examples illustrate how a publication originated as well as various challenges and solutions.
