From the Author

The prestigious ‘Training Journal’ has described this book as ‘the classic guide to report writing’, awarding it a maximum 25 stars (5 each for Innovation, Content, Clarity, Overall Recommendation and Value for Money). Now in its 9th edition, I believe that the book’s key strength is that it has always kept up with the times – with a new updated and revised edition coming out every two or three years. What you write is important, but how you write it and how it looks on the page are crucial in creating high-impact reports that consistently stand out from those of your fellow students, or from those of your professional colleagues or business competitors. In today’s competitive communication age, this is an achievement not to be undervalued. John Bowden.
