Leading scientists are identified as much by their ability to communicate ideas and results as by the quality of their research. Ideas and results that are not communicated effectively do not contribute to new knowledge, so it is important for scientists to hone their communication skills. Writing and Presenting Scientific Papers, 2nd Edition will help scientists learn the ABCs of effective communication: Accuracy and Audience adapted, Brief, and Clear. This book provides guidelines for preparing papers and presentations, which ensure that scientific messages are clear and concise for both readers and listeners. Techniques for improving writing, literature searching and training students in communication are also discussed. In this revised edition, a few more topics have been added, such as electronic submission of manuscripts, writing statistics, and writing research proposals. This book is designed to benefit young scientists presenting their first research results, experienced scientists wanting to make their communications more effective, university students at all levels, and teachers involved in the instruction of communication skills.
