THE SCIENTISTS GUIDE TO WRITING - STEPHEN B HEA...

The ability to write clearly is critical to any scientific career. The Scientist's Guide to
Writing provides practical advice to help scientists become more effective writers so that
their ideas have the greatest possible impact. Drawing on his own experience as a scientist 
graduate adviser  and editor  Stephen Heard emphasizes that the goal of all scientific writing
should be absolute clarity  that good writing takes deliberate practice  and that what many
scientists need are not long lists of prescriptive rules but rather direct engagement with
their behaviors and attitudes when they write. He combines advice on such topics as how to
generate and maintain writing momentum with practical tips on structuring a scientific paper 
revising a first draft  handling citations  responding to peer reviews  managing coauthorships
and more.
