Subject:Good, recent books for beginners in TW? From:Geoff Hart <ghart -at- videotron -dot- ca> To:techwr-l List <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com>, Lech Rzedzicki <xchaotic -at- gmail -dot- com> Date:Mon, 04 Feb 2008 09:48:36 -0500
Lech Rzedzicki wondered: <<I recently met a couple of folks from a
brand new technical writing department. They have no prior expertise
in Technical Writing and have asked for my book recommendations.>>
If they do their own editing and peer review, they'll probably be
interested in my book. Since that's clearly a self-serving statement,
I'll direct you to some of the independent reviews (more in the
works) so you can see what you think before you recommend it: http://
