RE: Book review of: Microsoft Word for Medical and Technical Writers

The above page has links to sample content, TOC, etc. Perhaps the authors
would be interested in your reviewing the book. Frankly, the sample content
I just looked at seems like Word 101 to me, so I think the book is a primer,
at best. Que usually has good books for Microsoft Word. The audience for
this one appears to be novices. But that's my conclusion from a review of
the above page and the sample content.
