Solving Problems in Technical Communication

Johndan Johnson-Eilola University of Michigan–Ann Arbor ; Stuart A. Selber University of Michigan–Ann Arbor

Abstract

Overall, the chapters in "Solving Problems in Technical Communication" provide an accessible introduction to major topics in the theory and practice of technical communication. The texts' focus on the context of communicators makes the book appropriate for technical communication majors at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Instructors of technical communication, including those who teach nonmajors, will find the discussion questions and literature overviews particularly useful. The editors of the book (Johndan Johnson-Eilola and Stuart A. Selber)state that the book is intended for "students who are learning about the field of technical communication" or professionals "interested in keeping up with new developments in the field." As members of the second cohort, the reviewers agree with that choice of audience wholeheartedly. As teachers of technical communication in an engineering college, they agree that the text is appropriate for students, but we would restrict the audience further, to students who plan to become technical communicators.
