I am on a committee to recommend a good style manual for our technical
writers. Someone has shown me "Science and Technical Writing - A
Manual of Style" by Philip Rubens, New York: Henry Holt, 1992.
Has anyone on the net actually used this book and can comment on its
usefulness?
I'd appreciate any comments you can give me regarding this book.
Thanks.
