Don't write another word until you have read this book from cover to cover.' -- Prof. Brian Sutton * Professor of Learning Performance at Middlesex University and author *
'An easy read that gets straight to the point, providing explicit do’s and don’ts, with IT-related examples and analogies. It is a handy, relevant collection of pointers that is readable, entertaining and useful. Most importantly it dispels the fear associated with the idea that writing is a mysterious process. Read it through once, to learn the rules. Keep it at your side as a quick reference, to keep you on track as you cement your skills. There are lots of books about writing, this one is very practical and targeted, and forms an excellent foundation on which to build good written communication in an area that is often accused of falling short. It should be part of every induction pack as required reading.' -- Tracey Torble * ITSM specialist, manager and writer *
'I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book...It’s a worthy addition to the BCS books series, and would be an excellent purchase for anyone that wants to improve their methods of communication. 10/10.' -- A P Sutcliffe MSc, MBCS
