Technical Style Readers

What Readers Are Saying About
Technical Style

It's terrific. Will use it in classes.: Professor of Engineering, University of Illinois at Chicago
… just as Edward Tufte's books show a passion for truth in statistical charts, Haile's analyses and prescriptions demonstrate how much he cares about clearing away the clutter that stands between readers and the underlying science.: Jonathan Price in Technical Communication, February 2004
This book could very well become the leader and expert choice for the style. It is very concise and detailed. This is a must have book for technical writers.: Anonymous Reviewer for Writer's Digest, March 2003
This is an excellent book that can serve as your lesson plan for self-study.: Review in Chemical Engineering Progress, June 2002
As one who has struggled for over 50 years with writing, I have collected several books on writing style and doubted at first whether a new book could offer anything new or useful. I am delighted to say that my doubts have been washed away—I am a believer. The book is clear, imaginative, precise… Every chapter had something that will be helpful in the daily struggle.: Professor of Engineering, University of California at Davis
[Technical Style's] most salient characteristic features … are its unusually readable style and its coverage of equations. The former is rare in current style manuals and the latter, as far as I know, absolutely non-existent.: Instructor of Technical Writing, College of Engineering, University of Virginia

I enjoyed reading Technical Style … [Haile is] a clear and precise writer.: Graduate Student in Engineering
I enjoyed this book and feel that the parts dealing with Figures, Tables, and Equations would be extremely useful to people working in scientific research.: Engineer, Dow Chemical Company, Midland, MI
Haile has done something that has long needed to be done—to extract the most useful insights from some of the leading style manuals and to apply them to technical writing.: Another Instructor of Technical Writing, College of Engineering, University of Virginia
… exceptionally well-written and useful … I read it with pleasure.: Graduate Student in Engineering
