In Part II, students learn about the critical nature of readability and design in technical writing. They examine sentence structure, flow, document design, and more. The final part focuses on the various documents and contexts of technical writing, discussing practical applications, reports, public documents, presentations, and press. Written to provide students with a complete foundational introduction, Technical Writing for Today and Tomorrow is an ideal resource for courses in technical writing.Stan Hunter Kranc is an associate teaching professor of English in the Department of English at The Pennsylvania State University.
