When I got to my new job, all documentation was linear. I am reorganizing it in modules with the intent to go XML (with DITA) and then single-source. I'm more than half way through...

I was thinking of buying Ament's book to see if my process is going "by the book"... Any comment on the book? Is going "by the book" going by Ament's book?

Thanks for your input.
