Table of contents:
Good writing and communication skills are vital in many areas of science and engineering - to communicate, to help you observe, think and remember, to organise your work and to avoid stress. Written by a scientist, this book is much more than a textbook of English grammar - it is a valuable source of information on all aspects of writing in scientific and technical situations. This new edition of Scientists Must Write has been revised and updated to take account of the changes in information and communications technology, including word processing and information storage and retrieval. It includes new appendices on punctuation, spelling and computers, and useful exercises to improve your writing.
