Abstract :
The general area of communications is a large field in which to swing a cat, or to edit a journal: • It encompasses not only written documentation, but oral (and oral/visual and even video) presentations, plus those pictures that are worth a thousand words. Even those that aren´t. • It includes not only what is written, said, and depicted, but the techniques with which they are produced. Communications technology is changing daily, and it is changing the ways we work. It addresses an audience ranging from the publications professional with 30 years experience in getting books out the door, through the PhD in rhetoric, to the engineer who is simply trying to communicate research results to management.
