This collection of essays aims to offer a cross-section of the generic types, the media and the functions of written discourse in business contexts in the Nineties. The eclecticism of the field, which this volume attempts to reflect, shows that the evolution of new forms of writing is only partly attributable to the ever increasing application of technology at work.
