Technical writing is not reality, but a recreation of reality to meet the needs of readers, says Side; professionals in technology disciplines have no time for minutiae in a report or paper, and even less for poorly written rambling accounts of technical information. He writes primarily for people in technology disciplines, but points out that in the 21st century, all disciplines produce and use technical information, so the material could be useful in a wide range of fields. He covers writer, audience, and documentation; getting started; how to write a paper or report; how to write specific documents; how to write and design for digital media; how to write and design associated communications; finishing the work; and presentations and meetings.
