Technical Communications for a Purpose
26 Nov 2008
Format:Paperback
I am so impressed with the book. My engineering students are pragmatists - they don't like arbitrary rules and someone else's idea of elegance. But this book shows them how to achieve objectives with written communications - something they really get. Effortless (almost) to read and provided with a number of checklist tools to remind the writer what he seeks to do and the means to do so, no student has indicated that this book was "not relevant". I use my copy often to work the academic decision making regime. A salute to Dr. Anderson!

Very informative and easy to follow
15 Aug 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book helps readers understand how to write professional writings in most effective way. A lot of visuals and examples helped me a lot with the technical writing course.
essential text for all engineers
27 May 2012
Format:Paperback
This text is great. It is worth it for the sample documents alone, but very well worth reading fully to understand the reader centered writing methodology. I reference this text almost every time I am writing a technical document for work or school.
