Title: This will do very nicely- thank you!
Review: Learning how to write technical papers is a formidable project in any language, but to do so in a second language, even more so. I teach in a computer science program that tries to balance out language learning with developing academic competencies. Most technical writing books have been written for native speakers of English, and very few understand the challenge facing ESL/EFL language students. This book understands what needs to be done in the academic classroom for international students learning to write in English. Our technical writing team has selected this book as the best book for our curriculum to help Japanese students learn to write research papers. It is thorough, practical, insightful, and well organized. It establishes high standards for writing and presents the student with manageable steps in reaching those standards. This book is right on the money.
