The art and science of documentation management / Graziella Tonfoni with Lakhmi Jain.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 285-293) and index.

Documentation management: an art and a science -- Documentation management through metaphors and analogies -- On envisioning documentation -- On iconizing documentation -- On visualizing documentation -- A few more exercises -- Conclusions.

As information becomes increasingly accessible through newly-introduced technologies, the human mind seeks a more comprehensive interpretation of the world in which we live. In order to manage this information overload, we must carefully reconsider our attitude towards documentation. While acknowledging the value of the standard guidebooks' hard rules on documentation management, Tonfoni advocates a new approach that promotes additional skills required for consistent decision-making, such as information sensitivity. This book has been conceived as a movie on paper, and as such, can be consider.
