The focus of Technical Writing for Engineers and Scientists is to teach engineering students the skill of technical writing. The book is unique in that it gets to the point, uses practical outlines throughout, and shows students how to produce the most common technical documents step by step. This title is useful for instructors looking to incorporate writing assignments into their already-packed classes, and for students looking for the nitty-gritty details about what they need to do to get the writing project done in their engineering and science classes.

This edition is available with Connect, including the Writing Assignment Tool. Instructor Resources for this title include: 
Instructor's Manual, Accessible Lecture PPTs, and Image PPTs.
