内容説明

As health care professionals become responsible for wider areas of patient-care, and increasingly involved in academic research, the need for specialised writing skills and the ability to express results in a clear and competent way has never been greater. This work provides a refresher course in English grammar, syntax, and style, and applies this knowledge to writing scientific prose and the construction of essays, case studies, research reports, dissertations and academic scientific papers. This comprehensive guide is readable, informal and user-friendly. It should prove useful to health science students, from writing their first essays through to final year dissertations. Postgraduate students should find it a useful guide to preparing and presenting their scientific thesis, and to writing for publication.
