RE: User Documentation Book Suggestions

[Monuck Melikian <cmelikian -at- mac -dot- com>]

I recommend "Technical Editing: The Practical Guide for Editors and Writers"
by Judith Tarutz, 1992. It wasn't published recently, but it is still an
excellent reference. It is currently available from Amazon for $35.02.

Read the customer reviews on Amazon for a more thorough commentary than I
have time for here.

Subject: User Documentation Book Suggestions

Hi everyone,

I'm very new to the editing field, and I'm looking for a book on editing for
user documentation, preferably one that has been published recently.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you so much!

Best,

Naomi
