Editorial Reviews

Review

A lucid, knowledgeable, and engaging guide on to how to publish your research, and how to do it well. Its like having a journal editor whisper in your ear as you write. This book has information that nobody tells you but is critical to know when you submit to a journal. A few hours with this book will provide wisdom that otherwise might take years of frustrating journal submissions to acquire (and not to mention minimize your rejections). --Steven Goodman, MD, PhD, Johns Hopkins Schools of Medicine and Public Health

Langs earlier book on how to report medical statistics proved so useful to me that I bought a second copy to keep in my home office. His new book features the same type of pragmatic advice on the nuts and bolts of scientific writing. A more descriptive subtitle for this book might be things I wish I knew when I was starting out. This book could have saved me considerable effort over the years. --David A. Grimes, M.D., UNC School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC

Tom Lang goes beyond being an expert in health science publishing because his books increase the potential of everyone in the field. In each chapter of this book, he presents realistic examples in considerable detail, allowing readers to learn approaches that are truly helpful to authors and editors. --Cate Timmerman Co-President Palladian Partners, Inc.

A remarkable book covering all aspects of planning, writing and submitting clinical journal articles for publication. The very thorough treatment makes this well worth reading for any student beginning a healthcare career, or the clinician wanting to produce more persuasive and rigorous publications.

There is not much in the book that you can't find online for free. Universities have websites to help improve writing skills and a simple google search can yield all of the same information in this book. If your professor does not insist that you buy this it, don't. There are no assignments in it so it's not likely you will miss anything without it.

Good book for those new to writing for publications

Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2011

I actually took the class from Mr. Lang at Ohio State which was a pretty good class. This is the text that he wrote. This serves as a good entry level text for those that are new to writing for publication in scientific and medical journals. It gives good points on those questions you ask your self like what font to use on a professional poster? or what information a plot should show for publication? Has a follow-up book "How to Report Statistics in Medicine" which is also a good resource to have on your bookshelf.

Well,
only went through couple of chapters so far - so really too early to adequately assess, but so far promising what I thought of it. An indepth review with many helpful hints. The 'history' part of it is interesting in a way to think about the purpose of why we are doing what we are doing.

英語で学術論文を書く研究者のためのガイドブックです．
本書は，医学・生命科学系研究者向けに書かれているものですが，広く学術論文を書く必要がある大学院生・研究者に向けた大変丁寧なガイドブックといえます．「研究者になるということは，英語論文を書くwriterとなることである」という心構えから，実際の学術論文の章立てや，それぞれの章の文章構成についての細かい指導まで書かれた，総合的な論文作成の指南書といえます．
初めて英語で学術論文をまとめようとしている人には，類書を読みあさらずに，この本をガイドにすれば必要十分と思います．
