Comprehensive coverage of all the main types of scientific communication provides undergraduate students with the tools they need in order to master lab reports, research papers, term papers, review articles, essay questions, proposals, oral presentations, posters, job and graduate school applications, and more.
Rich pedagogy gives students hands-on advice throughout. Pedagogical features include:
* Relevant examples drawn from real research papers, lab reports, term papers, essays, and other sources
* Writing guidelines and checklists for revisions
* Annotated text passages and sets of sample wording
* Extensive exercise sets with answers
