Advance Praise for Communication Patterns of Engineers:
"Carol Tenopir and Donald King offer an astute presentation and analysis of what is known about production, transfer, and use of knowledge by engineers. Their book offers the most current thinking about the communication patterns of engineers. . . . It should broaden the view of students; serve as a valuable resource for scholars and researchers; and help practitioners shape policy, manage knowledge, and provide information services."
–Dr. Thomas E. Pinelli
NASA Langley Research Center
"This book presents, reviews, and analyzes data from research studies covering a broad array of relevant aspects of engineering communication, and creates a good picture of the complexities of 'engineering' as a field. Engineering educators and librarians will find useful direction and support in this book as they plan and collaborate on engineering education programs and library services for engineers. "
–Kate Thomes
Head of the Bevier Engineering Library, University of Pittsburgh
