内容説明
This unique book shows professionals how to edit their technical writing for accuracy, clarity, and grammatical correctness. It includes exercises for editing abstracts and presenting technical information from the readers point of view, offering practical strategies for improving the organization of text, use of titles, headings and subheadings, use of definitions and examples, and the placement and display of tables and figures. Presenting some of the problems of technical writing in a "before and after" format, the drills and discussions sharpen the writer's ability to edit for both content and grammatical correctness. With its technical editor's glossary which contains not only stylebook entries, but also terms common to technical writing such as "informative abstract" and "callout", this new text will be an essential training manual and reference.
