Customer Reviews

Enjoyable

I'm not really fond of technical books, because they're usually either very dry or very judgemental. In this case, neither of those descriptions fit. My manager showed me this book, among others, to see which ones I'd like to use as a reference for our office and I read the whole book INSTEAD of browsing through it. The author writes in a conversational and intelligent tone and makes me feel like I'm having a conversation at the nearest coffeehouse instead of some lecture room with the air conditioning on too high.

Another Gem from Devires

If you're a terrible letter writer, or just want to improve your skills..this book is for you! Devries is one of the best technical writer's of our time. This book is fully endorsed by me!
