Tools of the Mind. Techniques and Methods for Intellectual Work

By V. Stibic

Most managers, scientists, researchers and other professionals gained during their school and university education a wide background knowledge and thorough training in their specific fields of science or technology, but were not taught how to study or work efficiently. This book describes the basic techniques and methods of intellectual work: - the organization of one's own work-place - the traditional and modern methods of text processing - in particular the practical use of a word processor by a professional for more challenging tasks than simple typing of business correspondence - personal computing by means of pocket calculators, personal computers and terminals - some basic techniques and methods of graphical presentation - techniques of communication by traditional and new means, including electronic mail and computer-conferencing.
