Jonathan Price A Fellow of the STC, Jonathan Reeve Price has helped teams gather requirements for large and small projects in corporations and national laboratories, creating use cases and user stories, test cases, and task topics. He has coached more than a thousand technical writers at high-tech firms in the U.S. and Japan, and through the University of California, Santa Cruz, certificate program in technical communication.
Author of more than two dozen books, he’s recently published a guide to XML for writers, called Get Past the Tags: How to Write (and Read) XML. His new book, Write a Use Case: Gathering Requirements that Users can Understand, argues that writers can contribute a lot of value to the process, standing midway between the stakeholders and the programming team, helping them reach mutual understanding of what must be built.
