Editorial Reviews

Review

"...a wealth of information and detail. ...a useful guide to the student who wants a one-stop guide to communicating, an introduction and pointer to more detailed information for the more conscientious or needy student and should find a place in departmental libraries."
-Dr. Jacqueline M. Atkinson, University of Glasgow, in CLINICAL CHEMISTRY AND LABORATORY MEDICINE (1999)
"Many alternative references are available, but this book would be my first choice for advanced college students, or graduate students, including medical students and residents. The book itself is an outstanding example of effective written communication."
--DOODY PUBLISHING
"In reviewing a scientific book, the primary question is, will the book be useful? To be useful, the information in the book must be needed and the text must be comprehensible. Does Scientific Papers and Presentations meet these criteria? Yes, it does, is my conclusion. I read most of this book while attending a conference, and I can say that many of the presenters there would certainly have benefitted from reading it. Unfortunately, this was true of many of the 'seasoned professionals' as well as of the more junior scientists for whom this book is intended. Each time, presented data were either incomprehensible or uninterpretable. I made notes and then checked to see if a thorough knowledge of the material in this book could have improved (or in some cases salvaged) the presentation. The answer was always yes."

3.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring reading., August 29, 2000
By A Customer
A very inspiring and reminding book for people writing scientific papers.All the figures and citats makes it so funny to read. You don't have to be in the department of agronomy to get a good idea for your paper from this book. After reading I just longed for continuing my writing field with new ideas and it's frontpage is so coulorful so for me it's not only a book but also a piece of art.
