Synopsis

Created by a team at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering, Engineering Writing addresses the specific requirements of engineering students rather than the more general needs of technical writers. In addition to the standard skills of grammatical writing, the book teaches students how to write with precision and objectivity as well as how to assess and adjust for specific audiences.
