Even if you have had no Japanese-language training, you can learn how to translate technical manuals, research publications, and reference works. "Basic Technical Japanese "takes you step by step from an introduction to the Japanese writing system through a mastery of grammar and scientific vocabulary to reading actual texts in Japanese. You can use the book to study independently or in formal classes.
This book places special emphasis on the "kanji" (characters) that occur most often in technical writing. There are special chapters on the language of mathematics and chemistry, and vocabulary building and reading exercises in physics, chemistry, biology, and biochemistry. With extensive character charts and vocabulary lists, "Basic Technical Japanese" is entirely self-contained; no dictionaries or other reference works are needed.
