Communicating in Science: Writing and Speaking - Vernon Booth - Paperback

Writing scientific papers and giving talks at meetings and conferences are essential parts of research scientists' work. This short, straightforwardly written book will help workers in all scientific disciplines to present their results effectively. The first chapter is about writing a scientific paper and is a revision of an essay which won first prize in a competition organised by Koch-Light some years ago. Later chapters discuss the preparation of typescripts, speaking at meetings and writing theses. There are also chapters addressed particularly to scientists whose first language is not English and to those in North America. Dr Booth has for many years both written and spoken about his own work and has edited other scientists' work and he draws his examples from a range of subjects.Booth, Vernon is the author of 'Communicating in Science: Writing and Speaking - Vernon Booth - Paperback' with ISBN 9780521277716 and ISBN 052127771X.
