Conference Feature

'The Work of Writing: Lessons from Literary Engineers' is just one of the many interesting papers from the Professional Communication Conference 2009  which is available on our featured database this month, IEEE. It's a stimulating article recounting the need for precise, concise writing especially in the fields of technology and engineering, and informs of the many who have gone on to become professional writers in later life. The author is T.Moran for those inspired to find out the names of all those literary engineers.

Tip

Do note when using eBook academic collection that you are allowed to print off one whole chapter of all books  that you have selected. It  informs you what is your maximum copyright limit (differs between UK and American publishers) and then prints off your required amount. Why not pick out 1, 2 or even 3 book chapters from different books pertaining to your subject, and follow up at home or elsewhere, safe in the knowledge you also have an electronic copy to rapidly transfer all those references.

You may think this an usual choice given its predominant electronic/mechanical feel and focus, BUT all these things require clear concise writing, explanatory, directional, descriptive etc, SO it's well worth a gander through to see how their professionals perfect their writing skills and their thoughts and application on this.
