English for Writing Research Papers by Adrian Wallwork

This book focuses on the aspect that causes non-native researchers the most problems when writing a scientific paper for publication in international journals and when presenting their results at conferences: the use of English.
From the reviews: The 308 pages are divided into 20 parts and each part is then further divided into sub chapters each of which is titled with a question or simple statement.. . Most chapters therefore are short and to the point and effectively deal with an extremely finite aspect of writing ... . This would be a useful book for those starting out on the research trail and for those struggling to get their work published. (ICS News, Vol. 7 (2), July, 2011) This book is that it focuses not just on how to write each section of a paper ... but also on how to write clear, concise, unambiguous English ... . It tells the students all kind of things that I have not found in other books on this topic ... . I really recommend this book not just to students but also to EAP teachers ... . written in a way that can be understood by students with an upper intermediate level of English. (Louise Sutherland, Amazon, May, 2011)
