Inhaltsangabe

This handbook shows biology students in particular how to read more thoughtfully and think more carefully about what they read and observe and then translate those skills into effective and accurate writing. Science students often lack writing skills and in this book students are shown painlessly how to improve and develop their own writing and get their thoughts across clearly and concisely. Key features include: coverage of every aspect of writing in biology, including lab reports, essay papers, research proposals, job and graduate study applications and oral presentations; a separate chapter on critical reading and note-taking to highlight strategies for developing a clear understanding of the subject; a special section on improving punctuation, word choice, spelling and grammar - painlessly and humourously; advice on how to answer exam questions, including essays and multiple choice; and examples of good and bad biology writing compared throughout.
