Practical Strategies for Technical Communication

This book was required by my college Technical Writing course. Not all of the chapters were discussed, but enough was covered to were I know this book explains things in very simple, easy to understand terminology while also not making things boring. I don't know about others, but I know that, for me, explaining material that I have no interest/little use for in a simple way while also keeping things interesting is key. Some parts I even enjoyed reading! There's also a lot in here about how to communicate in the business world, as well as how to perform certain things that your job may require of you in the future. Although the other material in the book is not very much meant for my career, just knowing how to do the things this book teaches you how to do makes you a valuable asset for any company or career you have.

I love this book!I had a technical writing class and was able to pass with an A which overall is great.However, this book has come in handy even out of school.This is one of the few books that I did not want to resell and have kept for myself to reference from.Students at my school were preparing job applications, resumes, and even career guidance for encouraging others to look at their career.This was an amazing resource to have to look back on.The examples in this book are great to go by since it helps high school students understand the content.

Ended up not being the text needed for the course, but the book was so well written that I kept it for future referencing. However, the text was a copy that was not legally supposed to be sold (sample copy or something) and the seller placed black tape (well placed, but still not very classy) over all areas that stated so. I happily peeled them off.

I bought this text for a course my son was taking in his major of communications and media technology. I began reading it out of curiosity about the author's take on technology. My usual experience with textbooks is that they are written by academicians who know their field but don't know how to write entertainingly. This text is just the opposite. It is very well written and I actually read the book for enjoyment while my son was taking the course. There is now an update edition that likely uses more recent examples of technology, but if it is written as well as this volume, it's worth the price.

This was a confusing book. I purchased for one of my English classes. We used 2 chapters and that was it. I had to resell on Amazon.

I would like to speak with someone who deals with the digital purchase aspect of this product. I recently just rented this book in ebook form, but I placed the wrong end date and I would like it to be extended. How do I go about doing this?

Condition was way more better than I expected, overall cost quite reasonable and it came a day earlier in fact than promised, which saved the day in every sense. Thank you.

This was a required book for class that I used 1 time and wasn’t worth the time
