More about the book

This book assists STEMM researchers in crafting effective papers for publication and other research-related documents, including doctoral theses, technical reports, and conference abstracts. It employs a reverse-engineering approach to writing, developed from extensive collaboration with STEMM researchers at Imperial College London. This method dissects current models of STEMM research writing, equipping writers with the necessary tools to effectively apply these models in their fields. Additionally, it fosters the development of adaptable strategies that will keep pace with evolving research communication platforms. The extensively revised Second Edition addresses the writing needs of both early-stage doctoral STEMM researchers and seasoned professionals, regardless of their English proficiency. Maintaining a practical, user-friendly format, it features seven units focusing on key components of STEMM research communication: Introduction, Method, Results, Discussion, Conclusion, Abstract, and Title, along with comprehensive FAQ responses and a new Checklist and Tips section. Each unit includes analyses of recent published STEMM journal papers, guiding researchers on what to write and, importantly, how to write it. The book serves as a clear, do-it-yourself guide to enhance the effectiveness of STEMM research writing in a global context, ensuring the fast and accurate communication of complex information.
