The field of technical communication is rapidly expanding in both the academic world and the private sector, yet a problematic divide remains between theory and practice. Here Johndan Johnson-Eilola and Stuart A. Selber, both respected scholars and teachers of technical communication, effectively bridge that gap. "Solving Problems in Technical Communication" collects the latest research and theory in the field and applies it to real-world problems faced by practitioners - problems involving ethics, intercultural communication, new media, and other areas that determine the boundaries of the discipline. The book is structured in four parts, offering an overview of the field, situating it historically and culturally, reviewing various theoretical approaches to technical communication, and examining how the field can be advanced by drawing on diverse perspectives. Timely, informed, and practical, "Solving Problems in Technical Communication" will be an essential tool for undergraduates and graduate students as they begin the transition from classroom to career.
Johndan Johnson-Eilola is professor of communication and media at Clarkson University. He is the author of Datacloud, coauthor of Writing New Media, and coeditor, with Stuart A. Selber, of Central Works in Technical Communication. Stuart A. Selber is associate professor of English at the Pennsylvania State University. He is the author of Multiliteracies for a Digital Age and the editor of Rhetorics and Technologies and Computers and Technical Communication.
