This is a book for programmers. It is a guide to mastering the most difficult programming language of all: human language.
Just as with programming, we write with particular goals in mind. That goal might be as simple as reminding someone about a requirement or as complex as justifying an entirely new architecture for a product. But in every case we write in order to achieve something.
This book will teach you how to achieve those goals more effectively with clearer, more persuasive writing.
The first three chapters are content complete.
