A Practical Guide to Scientific Writing in Chemistry

Scientific Papers, Research Grants and Book Proposals. Successful completion of postgraduate studies, especially PhD, and career advancement in academia strongly depends on the ability to publish scientific papers, books and research grant proposals. This step-by-step guide is mainly intended for postgraduate students and early career researchers in chemical science and the libraries that serve them.

Successful completion of postgraduate studies, especially PhD, and career advancement in academia strongly depend on the ability to publish scientific papers or books and attract research grants. However, many chemical scientists find preparing scientific papers and research grant and book proposals difficult; partly because of insufficient training in writing and partly because there are few practical books to enable them to learn the art. This step-by-step practical guide is intended mainly for postgraduate students and early career researchers in chemical science and the libraries that serve them but will also be useful to other scientists.
