Writing in consultation with professional engineers, lecturers and students, Richard Ellis has brought his considerable experience as a consultant and author in communication skills to the field of engineering. Communication for Engineers outlines clearly the situations that are encountered and the skills which are required by the engineer, as a student and in professional life. The book is divided into four main parts: one-to-one communication, communication in groups, written communication and new technology. Each chapter includes examples drawn from the experience of engineers and deals with situations the engineer will encounter. Key points are highlighted, activities to work on alone and in class are suggested, and each chapter ends with a summary and checklist of important points to remember. The book ends with a toolbox of useful information on topics such as spelling, punctuation, definitions, writing equations, and using abbreviations. The lessons learnt from Communication for Engineers will stand readers in good stead throughout their careers.
