- 영문으로 통용되고 있는 technical communication을 그 형태별로 알아보면서, 정확한 의사 전달을 할 수 있도록 내용으로 구성 -
『TECHNICAL WRITING』은 영어를 배우거나, 영문 문서작성의 포맷들을 가르쳐 주기 위해 정리된 책이 아니다. 영문으로 현재 통용되고 있는 technical communication을 그 형태별로 알아보면서, 독자 또는 시청자들에게 정확한 의사 전달의 목적을 달성할 수 있도록 내용이 구성되어져 있다. 따라서 이 책에서 얘기하는 좋은 글이란 문학적 예술적으로 뛰어난 것을 말하는 것이 아니라 어떠한 특정한 목적을 가지고 쓰는 글이다. 취업을 위해서 작성하는 이력서와 지원서, 예비 고객의 질문에 답하는 e-mail, 환불 신청의 답변 등 일상이나 회사 업무시 자주 쓰이는 내용들을 중심으로 어떻게 하면, 논리적이고 예의바른 글을 쓸 수 있는지에 대한 다양한 영어 글쓰기 기술들을 사례를 통해 보여주고 있다.

- 혼자서라도 기본 원칙을 배우고 작문연습을 해서 올바른 영작문을 할 수 있도록 구성 -
글쓰기에 흥미를 가진 사람은 혼자서라도 기본 원칙을 배우고, 작문연습을 해서 올바른 영작문을 할 수 있도록 구성되어져 있다. 능동형 문장 작성에서부터 구두법 삽입, 그리고 인용된 정보를 표시하고, 저작권을 인정함으로써 지적재산권 침해—표절을 피하는 방법까지 배우게 될 것이다.
특히 독자들에게 3가지 명확한 이점을 제공하고 있다.
-많은 부분, 특히 “How To” 부분들이 한국어로 번역되었다.
-중요한 개념들을 기억하기 쉽게 하기 위해 단어 첫 글자만 이용한 줄임말이 사용되었다.
-문장난이도 통계치(readability statistics) 대해 간결하게 설명되어 있다.

- 주어진 시간과 공간에 정확하고 효과적으로 필요한 뜻을 전달하는 훈련은 매우 필요 -
국내에서도 최근 의사표현능력의 중요성을 인식하고 많은 관련 교육이 추가 되고 있고 진학 및 입사에 점점 중요하게 반영이 되고 있다. 분야와 상관없이 의사소통기술이 성공적인 업무수행에 직결되고 그러한 능력과 업무능력에 상관관계가 있다는 사실은 명확하다. 따라서 우리는 주어진 시간과 공간에 정확하고 효과적으로 필요한 뜻을 전달하는 훈련은 매우 필요하다. 미국을 선두로 한 선진국에서는 이미 오래 전부터 technical communication 또는 rhetorics 전공을 개설하여 타당성과 설득력 있게, 자신이나 소속 단체에 이익이 되는 글과 말을 전달하는 방법에 대한 과학적인 연구에 과감한 투자를 하고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 이 책은 이러한 영어 글쓰기에 필요한 디딤돌이 될 것이다.
