Hi austechies, If you would like a copy of one of the following books, and are happy to write a review for publication in "Words", an e-journal my company publishes, please give me a shout. A page and a half is usually adequate, as long as you give the book considered analysis. To get a feel for the depth of review we're after, take a look at Vian Lawson's review of Kate Burridge's new book in the latest issue of "Words" (http://www.abelard.com.au/bulletin.html) or at earlier reviews by Peter Martin and Nikki Ward (in past issues, but also available from the same site). Here are the blurbs from the publisher of the books I have on offer at the moment: <http://baywood.com/books/previewbook.asp?id=978-0-89503-378-9> Content Management: Bridging the Gap Between Theory and Practice Edited by George Pullman and Baotong Gu This book begins a conversation about the effects of electronic content management systems on the profession of technical communications and advocates the need for more community involvement in the design and implementation of CMS. <http://baywood.com/books/previewbook.asp?id=978-0-89503-375-8> Connecting People with Technology: Issues in Professional Communication Edited by George F. Hayhoe and Helen M. Grady This book explores five areas where technology affects society-making technology usable, meeting the needs of global audiences, disseminating health and safety information, communicating about biotechnology, and understanding how technology and global business shape the corporate environment-and suggests ways in which human communication can facilitate technology use. I would need to have the review by September 30 for inclusion in the November issue of "Words".
