How to Write, Publish, and Present in the Health Sciences: Guidelines for Clinicians and Laboratory Researchers
How to Write, Publish, and Present in the Health Sciences provides advice and techniques for preparing formal scientific communications: abstracts, posters, slides, grant proposals, and scientific articles. It also addresses the related topics of writing effectively and efficiently; preparing tables, graphs, drawings, and photographs for publication; creating posters and slides; and documenting clinical and laboratory images for publication.
A profound, if unacknowledged, truth is that science could not exist without writing. Another truth, likewise unacknowledged, is that scientific writing is not just about writing. It is about communicating with graphs, tables, statistics, and images, as well as with words. It is about persuading readers with reason, fact, and logic to accept the research as credible. It is about documenting experimental protocols, analytical methods, and results so that the research can be evaluated, interpreted, and replicated. It is about archiving the research in the scientific literature so that others can find it, learn it, and build on it.
By addressing these other functions of scientific writing, How to Write, Publish, and Present in the Health Sciences goes well beyond the usual books in this field to create a uniquely valuable resource.
