内容説明

Ebel/Bliefert/Russey The Art of Scientific Writing Three scientists from both sides of the Atlantic - authors, teachers, and a publishing editor - have collaborated to make this book possible. The topics covered range from the first notes a student takes in the laboratory to the problems entailed in preparing and editing a book manuscript. Part I provides necessary background and general information about various forms of written communication: reports, theses, journal articles, and books. Part II, together with a set of appendixes, adds detailed information about the materials and tools employed in scientific writing. Complete with numerous examples the book provides a reliable guide for scientists in all fields on matters such as correct use of units and symbols, the formulation of equations, and the preparation of figures and tables. The work is intended not only for those whose native language is English, but also for the broader scientific community. Extensive cross-referencing, a very detailed index, and a handy format combine to make this book a useful tool for the everyday work of authors and those in the publishing business. It is also a welcome source of guidance for science students interested in improving their writing.

内容説明

Three scientists from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean summarize their years of experience as authors, teachers, and editors for all those who want to know about scientific writing and publishing. The book ranges from the initial notes taken by a student in a chemistry lab to a full manuscript prepared by professional scientists who have questions about authoring and editing a book. The authors describe the materials and tools to be used in scientific writing. Although they take most of the examples from chemistry, they offer scientists from all areas a reliable guide to such questions as the correct use of units and symbols, the formulation of equations, or the best use of tables and figures. The book assumes English as the major language of publication, but is designed for anyone who uses English as the language of science. Many cross references, the very detailed index, and the handy format will make this book a useful and indispensable tool for the daily work of authors and editors in publishing.
