For courses in Writing Across the Curriculum or Writing About
Biology. Developing the tools to effectively write about biology
Teaching biology and strong writing skills simultaneously is a
challenge, especially when students exhibit a range of abilities.
The 9th Edition of A Short Guide to Writing about Biology provides
tools to strengthen student writing and reinforce critical
thinking. Written by a prominent biologist, this best-selling guide
teaches students to express ideas clearly and concisely. It
emphasizes writing as a way of examining, evaluating, and refining
ideas: students learn to read critically, study, evaluate and
report data, and communicate with clarity. Using a narrative style,
the text is its own example of good analytical writing. In this new
edition, students learn how to avoid plagiarism (Ch. 1 and 3), read
and interpret data (Ch. 3, 4 and 9), prepare effective Materials
and Methods sections in research reports and more (Ch. 9), and
prepare manuscripts for submission (Ch 9). The text also provides
advice on locating useful sources (Ch. 2), maintaining laboratory
and field notebooks (Ch. 9), communicating with different audiences
(Ch. 6 and 10), and crafting research proposals (Ch. 10), poster
presentations (Ch. 11), and letters of application (Ch. 12).
