Abstract:
This book gives an inside view of real engineers communicating in a modern aerospace engineering environment. Using many authentic texts and language examples, the author describes the writing of specifications and requirements, engineering proposals, executive summaries and other communication tasks. Providing insights into what engineers really talk and write about, and having their endorsement, the book would interest applied linguists specializing in English for Specific Purposes, engineering students, professional engineers and those who work in procurement.
