Though most of the essays target academics, business professionals with a reflective bent will be able to apply the [content] in the workplace. Recommended.

– D. Truty, CHOICE, April 2005

In Internet-Based Workplace Communications: Industry and Academic Applications, Kirk St. Amant and Pavel Zemliansky have compiled a work that helps would-be technical writers prepare for a world of telework and remote teams. [It] is a commendable collection, a fair read for student and veteran technical communicators alike.

– Gary Hernandez in Technical Communication, Volume 53, Number 1, 2006

Internet-Based Workplace Communications is certainly useful to technical and professional communication educators seeking to rethink instructional practices in light of new online technologies. It offers much food for thought about how technologies affect writing and learning in professional and technical communication instruction.
