I teach a course in technical writing and our materials refer to this book. I've been thinking about getting it for some time and finally got it. I'm so glad I did. It has a bunch of useful information for students and practitioners. I also received the book very quickly and have nothing but good things to say about the seller and the book.

I’m trying to help my students in some of these sensemaking areas but I’m still grasping many of the concepts myself. Exquisite design, easy to reference, with lots of guidance for learning and teaching. Really grateful for these resources.

Such and awesome book for anyone like me teaching information architecture. It's well structured and comes with tones of small little cheatsheets and concepts to re-use with your own students!
