Description

Winner of the 2007 National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) Award for Best Collection of Essays on Technical and Scientific Communication The first book to focus on the intersection of cultural studies and technical communication, Critical Power Tools draws on various traditions of cultural studies to develop new or expanded theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical approaches to technical communication. Offered as a sourcebook for the field, the book is organized into three parts. The first section, emphasizing theory building, reconceptualizes key concepts or practices, such as usability, through a cultural studies lens. The second section illustrates alternative research methods through several case studies. The third section offers critical and productive pedagogical approaches, including specific assignments, applicable to both undergraduate and graduate courses. Read more

Chapter 3 is the BEST
Format: Hardcover
This book is wonderful, very useful in today's technicial society. I especially recommend chapter 3: The Phantom Machine: The Invisible Ideology of Email, by Myra Moses and Steven Katz. It has really changed my perspective on communication of the present age.
