Information Development - Managing Your Documentation Projects, Portfolio, and People

Stuart Culshaw — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:27:01 +0000

http://www.amazon.com/Information-Development-Managing-Documentation-P...

ISBN: 0-471-77711-0

Author: JoAnn T. Hackos

Publisher: Wiley

The 1994 bestselling classic Managing Your Documentation Projects set the industry standard for technical documentation. However, since then, much has changed in the world of information development. With this new title, JoAnn Hackos looks beyond the structured project of the 1980s and 1990s. Instead, she focuses on the rapidly changing projects of the 21st century and addresses how to introduce agile information development without neglecting the central focus of planning information design and development around the needs of information users.

Developing Quality Technical Information - A Handbook for Writers and Editors - Second edition - IBM Press

Stuart Culshaw — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 20:23:30 +0000

http://www.amazon.com/Developing-Quality-Technical-Information-Informa...

ISBN 0-13-147749-8

By Hargis, Carey, Kilty Hernandez, Hughes, Longo, Rouiller & Wilde.

The book presents a much needed approach to quality technical communication and a working plan for achieving quality. The examples are excellent and are easy to use and adapt. The editorial advice is simple and clear enough for tech writers who did not major in English or journalism. It is most worthy of a text in university programs, but it is more valuable to experienced writers, editors and managers concerned with raising the quality of their publications. The main difference between this and other books is that in each of the first nine chapters, one quality characteristic is presented that you can apply to your writing project to make technical information easy to use, easy to understand and easy to find. There are checklists at the end of each chapter for review and a Quality checklist in the appendix covering all of the characteristics. The book shows original text and revision text so that you can actually browse the book and see the differences applied.
