Inhaltsangabe

If you’re like most engineers, you don’t like to write.

And yet, we are judged by what we write. Our ability to communicate clearly can be as important as our technical ability. Our long, formal, and complex papers often result in bored and frustrated readers. Bored and frustrated readers don’t award contracts or give promotions.

This book, written by an engineer, for engineers, can fix that. Technical writing is a skill that can be learned. Whether you’re writing a complex report, proposal, or email, you will learn how to:

  • Lose your fear of writing
  • Become more direct and straightforward
  • Write more persuasively, easily, and efficiently
  • Eliminate “clarification”
  • Improve your professional image

Experience what clear, concise, and concrete writing can do for your career.

Author Peter T. Martin PhD PE, is a pragmatic, experienced civil engineer with a Welshman’s passion for language. Although British by birth, Peter’s approach to technical writing is both pragmatic and American. His insistence that technical writing must be clear, concise, and complete reflects decades of hands-on experience teaching undergraduate and graduate engineering students.
