From the Publisher
Unique in approach, this introduction to technical writing immerses students in a running case study of situations and projects in a fictitious company that is much like an actual potential employer of college graduates. The text offers clear guidelines for all documents, annotated writing models, realistic assignments, and a writing handbook all in one -- allowing students to place themselves into professional roles and to respond to real-world technical problems, even if their own experience is limited.
