Lynn Dupre's "Bugs in Writing" is the best book on technical writing you can buy. When it comes to explaining the mechanics of putting one word in front of another in a way that won't come back covered in red ink from the copyeditor, you just can't do better.

Nat Torkington is conference planner for the Open Source Convention, OSCON Europe, and other O'Reilly conferences. He was project manager for Perl 6, is on the board of The Perl Foundation, and is a frequent speaker on open source topics. He cowrote the bestselling Perl Cookbook.

Thanks for the tip.

PS: I'm proud to say I bought the book off of eBay and it was less than any of the vendors listed by isbn.nu. :)
