Success in scientific and engineering research depends on effective
writing and presentation. The purpose of this guide is to help the
reader achieve that goal. It enables students and researchers to
write and present material to a professional modern standard,
efficiently and painlessly, and with maximum impact. The approach
is not prescriptive. Rather, the emphasis is on a logical approach
to communication, informed by what needs to be achieved, what works
in practice, and what interferes with success. Over 400 examples of
good and bad writing and graphing are presented. Each is from a
published research article and is accompanied by analysis, comment,
and correction where needed. Journal reviewers' critiques of
submitted manuscripts are included to illustrate common pitfalls.
Above all, this is a "how-to" book, comprehensive but concise,
suitable for continuous study or quick reference. Checklists at the
end of each chapter enable the reader to test the readiness of a
dissertation, journal submission, or conference presentation for
assessment or review. Although oriented towards engineering and the
physical and life sciences, it is also relevant to other areas,
including behavioural and clinical sciences and medicine.
