Re: Workbook design literature?

Reynolds,

James Hartley's "Designing instructional
texts"<http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:OywWQMCY04YJ:www.keele.ac.uk/depts/ps/books/Designing%2520Instructional%2520Text.pdf+designing+instructional+text&hl=pt-BR&gl=br&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESiEH5GTE0TAj9Gjd069vZZRDjesWIpAhb4VDrCF4lVeXAcfLNcMF7nUh0pL6AWPhsxac5RhvkjIzB-ZC_TYuLQu4n_UAmhZ3PsZ0oj7o5MFXhwWFB0Y5C2U-fdMwf3TDmnAeVI-&sig=AHIEtbRUrDkM_nx7-PCfNZKY3x9eWyWoNA>might
be useful.
But, you might like reading Robin Kinross'
review<http://resources.metapress.com/pdf-preview.axd?code=j028243175765751&size=largest>first.
I also like "Writing software
documentation"<http://www.amazon.com/Writing-Software-Documentation-Task-Oriented-Communication/dp/0205195768>by
Thomas Barker.
