Abstract

In addition to excellent general advice on writing, this book provides specific advice on writing scientific articles. Like any good style guide, Barrass’s book discusses the elements of good prose but then goes on to provide guidance on aspects of communication that are important to scientists, including tables, graphs, and illustrations.
