comprehensive and applications-based approach to scientific communication
Scientific Writing and Communication: Papers, Proposals, and Presentations is an "all-in-one"
handbook that covers the areas of scientific communication that a student, researcher, or scientist
needs to know and to master in order to successfully promote his or her research and career. Written in
an accessible and easy-to-understand manner, the book begins with several chapters on the basics of
the scientific writing style. It then builds on these by applying the presented principles to all types of
scientific documents. The book also covers academic presentations and posters in detail. Applicable in
the fields of life sciences, medicine, psychology, chemistry, physics, and engineering, it is ideal as a
stand-alone textbook or as a reference guide.
Angelika H. Hofmann is an academic fundraiser for the sciences at Dartmouth College, as well as the Founder and President of SciWri Services, a venture that provides workshops, consulting and editing services on scientific communication globally.
