Editorial Reviews

Review

"Should be recommended reading to everyone either contemplating or involved in medical research." -- Pre-Hospital Immediate Care

From the Back Cover

A well written, concise text giving clear guidance on how to write all the types of scientific material: the various sections of a scientific paper, case reports, reviews, abstracts letters. It also gives some insight into the world of scientific publishing, outlining the roles of publishers, manuscript assessors, and electronic publishing. With all major points summarised in boxes, it will appeal equally to novices and old hands suffering from writer's block, as well as those for whom English is not their first language.
