Description
The Technical Writer's Handbook: Writing with Style and Clarity by Matt Young
This practical guide is written by a practicing scientist who understands the challenges of technical writing. It offers a unique approach, focusing on the principles of ordinary writing to improve communication in scientific and engineering contexts.
Divided into two parts, the book covers the basics of technical and report writing, as well as grammar, style, and organization. A comprehensive dictionary-style section provides detailed entries on topics such as common errors, resume writing, and formatting conventions.
