Synopsis
This complete guide too academic and professional writing in engineering and the sciences is designed to broaden students awareness of all kinds of scientific and technical writing. A complete case - that of the Kansas City Hyatt Regency walkway collapse in 1981 - is examined, step-by-step, from the perspective of a construction firm hired to build a similar structure. A total of 55 readings, distributed mostly throughout Part Two, shows the enormous range and richness of each scientific rhetorical form. Part Three, on composing a technical report or scientific paper, covers library research (including computerized data retrieval), documentation style for technical works, methods of revising documents for different levels of audience sophistication, word processing and graphics.
