About the Book

Thoroughly updated throughout, the authors of this classic guide put their advice into practice by keeping the book as clear and simple as possible. They provide early-career scientists and experienced researchers with practical support on writing for different audiences and getting published. This ninth edition retains the key material – including preparing text and graphics, publishing research papers, writing grant proposals, rights and permissions, and a wealth of advice on writing style – while new material includes new guidance on navigating copyright, presenting online, identifying co-authors, creating visual abstracts, and writing in English as a non-native language. Valuable appendices provide a ready reference on words and expressions to avoid, SI prefixes, useful websites, and a handy glossary. Postgraduate students and working scientists will want to keep How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper at their desks and refer to it at every stage of writing and publication.
