Solid and well-written textbook. Cleary explains its subject matter, and I truly felt I got a lot out of it with my course.

This is one of the best technical writing text books I have read. It's very well organized and extremely helpful. I recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning more.

Very thorough review of everything technical writer needs to know. Explained clearly and concisely, there are a lot of exercises that you can follow along with in order to gain a better understanding.

ale tak jo, dá se to číst, ale... k čemu je, že autor vysvětluje principy tvorby technické dokumentace, když se jimi sám neřídí.
nepřehledné, děsně ukecané, nekonzistentní (skáče se od tématu k tématu, občas si autor protiřečí), grafická úprava nic moc, ztracený čas - nedočetl jsem.
ruce pryč.

It's good as textbooks go. Clear writings, good examples/images. Nice glossy paper.
