ABSTRACT

In addition to writing documents that are particular to your technical discipline, you will have to prepare memos, nontechnical reports, agendas, meeting minutes, business plans, resumés, cover letters, and so forth. Most of the topics in this chapter are generic. For example, a good resumé follows the same principles regardless of your profession. Your preparation of standard business communications will be greatly enhanced, however, by understanding several Žne points that are particular to the technical professional.
