Better Writing February 25, 2006 A. Vincze (Fairfax, VA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book is a step-by-step instruction to different kinds of technical writing. It is easy to understand and follow. The topics are well organized and clearly outlined, which makes it easy to read.
It's a nice reference book if you have to look up different writing styles.
A little More Information, Please, Needed Before Purchase October 18, 2008 Karen L. Theilen 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The book is great, awesome in fact, I just love it. My only problem was that it did not come with an access code that would allow me access to my online class. The code is only good once, so that was why I did not purchase a used book. Assuming-and we all know where that leads-that it came with the code was my mistake apparently. I then had to pay for the online code seperately, and that cost me another $70. So, all told, I paid more for the book from Amazon than I would have at the college bookstore, who sold the new text with the access code. This could have been avoided had there been any way to determine beforehand if the text came with an online access code. So next time, please, make it so that future buyers have a way to determine if the text comes with everything they need before they buy. That seems only fair, and moral. Remember, fool me once, shame on you; but fool me twice, shame on me. Rest assured that next time, I won't be so trusting. It may even cost you my business.
Great Book June 26, 2009 R. Santos (Boston, MA) It was assigned to us in class, but definitely a keeper... if you're going to technical fields, such as health, engineering and office work, this is definitely a good thing to have nearby...
The guys I bought it through promised and delivered... overall a great experience
Technical writing February 20, 2010 Lori Cooper (TX, US) I had to get this book for a college required class, but have found it to be very useful in everyday life as well. This is a book I will keep.
