Part one comprises brief chapters on areas of English grammar that feature heavily in engineering and that cause the most problems for second language learners. The second looks at formatting and working with numbers and diagrams. The third constitutes an A-Z list of commonly confused terms and misused words. All entries contain terms of a similar nature for comparison and example errors alongside the correct usage. The book’s unique characteristic is the fact that every entry is a real-world example; so, instead of the author listing errors that language learners are expected to make, the mistakes that are actually being made in engineering papers are addressed and directly resolved.
