	How to Write and Illustrate a Scientific Paper - Björn Gustavii Easy to read and up-to-date, How to Write and Illustrate a Scientific Paper will help both first-time writers and experienced contributors in authoring research papers. Although the examples are mainly from the medical and biological sciences, the principles described apply to virtually every branch of science. This book provides step-by-step information on how to prepare every aspect of a scientific paper, from the title and the order in which the authors are cited, through to how the reference list should be arranged. Illustrations, particularly graphs, are discussed in detail, with poor examples redrawn for comparison. The reader is offered advice on how to present the paper, where and how to submit the manuscript, and finally, how to correct the proofs. Examples of both good and bad writing, taken from actual journal articles, illuminate the author’s advice in this accessible and informative guide. - Concise, easy-to-read and up-to-date - Uses illustrations of good and bad writing from a number of well known journals such as The Lancet, JAMA, and The New England Journal of Medicine - Shows illustrative graphs taken from scientific papers, redrawn to demonstrate how they can be improved Publisher: Cambridge University Press ISBN: 0521530245 Published: 2003 Paperback: 152 pages Price: £13.99
