Book excerpt: A departure from the large, expensive, introductory technical communication texts, Writing for the Technical Professions is a brief, easily-referenced, pragmatic text; a manual of actual workplace practices, rather than technical writing "theories," that can take students beyond the college classroom as practicing technical writers. Featuring an appealing comb-bound format with tabbed dividers, this exciting classroom text and reference tool provides real-world advice for composing a wide variety of technical documents. A focus on the electronic workplace, up-to-date coverage of legal and ethical issues including liability and an emphasis on collaboration and international communication make this book a welcome and refreshing change in technical writing texts.
