The Pocket Guide to Technical Writing is an alphabetized handbook that provides a handy reference for on-the-job writing and gives easy-to-find answers to common writing problems faced in various technical and professional careers.
Pocket Guide will meet the needs of those instructors who do not want to use a textbook with an abundance of practice exercises but who, instead, want a short reference work that provides the essential guidelines; in some cases instructors will supplement the text with exercises and cases that they have created or collected.
