Best College Textbook

I found this book very helpful with regards to improving my writing skills. I originally read the book in 1989 in college and still refer to it today. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to significantly improve their writing business and technical skills. The books is easy to follow and contains many good examples.

if you need a tech writing manual...

this text is a bit droll, but what do you expect when considering the topic. it contains a lot that you should already know, but it makes a nice backup reference for writing tech papers or resumes, etc. it's not a must-have book, but it is a good one to own.

Excellent total source for any technical writer.

I simply cannot say enough positive things about this book. It is exhaustive in details and examples, but easy to read and use. It also covers the entire technical realm - with the exception of on-line help systems. This book is not an advanced course on word processing or using RoboHELP, but rather is an advanced course on the entire technical writing profession. (From the Tech-L listserv.)
