Editorials

Booknews

Not primarily a "how to" book, but rather a conceptual guide that draws comfortably on cognitive and perceptual psychology for documentation specialists who need to communicate difficult technical information clearly through the use of graphics. Thoroughly illustrated. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
