Infos

This self-help guide is intended for scientific and medical professionals and students who wish to improve their scientific writing skills.

Although the book addresses certain issues more troublesome to scientific communicators of a non-English language origin, the guide will be of equal benefit to those whose first language is English. If you do not only want to write but want to write well, this book is for you.
