As in the original, David Beer's Second Edition discusses a variety of approaches, such as: ; ; ; Writing technical documents that are clear and effective ; ; Giving oral presentations more confidently ; ; Using graphics and other visual aids judiciously; ; Holding productive meetings ; ; Becoming an effective listener; ; The new edition also includes updated articles on working with others to get results and on giving directions that work. Each article is aimed specifically at the needs of engineers and others in the technology professions, and is written by a practicing engineer or a technical communicator. Technical engineers, IEEE society members, and technical writing teachers will find this updated edition of David Beer's classic Writing and Speaking in the Technology Professions an invaluable guide to successful communication."--Publisher description.
