About this title

Synopsis

This book, by a scientist, is not a textbook on English grammar: nor is it just one more book on how to write a technical report, or a thesis, or a paper for publication. It is about all the ways in which writing is important to scientists and engineers in helping them to remember to observe, to think, to plan, to organize and to communicate.

Review

"In an effort to improve science communication, this revised and updated guide covers everything from composing a letter to writing a thesis and preparing a talk. Barrass, a scientist himself, addresses his peers' specific needs as he offers advice on how to observe, remember, organize, and plan in order to communicate better."
