Description

This is a general writing, research, and style guide for students of psychology and the life sciences. In addition to outlining the general principles of style, grammar, and usage, it focuses on the special concerns of life science students: ethical issues in research, writing, and presentation of data and lab research. Like other books in this series, this one also includes sections on how to write essays, book and research reports, and examinations. This book is small enough to be accessible yet comprehensive enough to be useful.Table of Content1. Communicating in the Sciences; 2. Doing Research; 3. The Internet as a Research Resource; 4.
