SCIENTIFIC WRITING: A READER AND WRITER’S GUIDEPreface
You know how to write grammatically correct English. Congratulations.
You have read Strunk andWhite’s little book, The Elements of
Style.a Perfect. To pursue true writing excellence, you now need to
take into consideration the people key to your success: the readers.
What readers fear the most while reading a scientific paper is
to get stuck or left behind. They are stuck when the experienced
writer zigzags around the familiar obstacles in the knowledge field,
whilst readers crash into them; and they are left behind when the
knowledgeable writer runs where they can only walk. The knowledge
gap that separates you from your readers cannot be ignored,
yet adequate background knowledge does not guarantee that motivated
readers will find reading your paper easy and rewarding.Much
more is required of them. A scientific paper requires more memory,
attention, and time than a typical novel of the same length. Good
writing should therefore take into account the reader’s ignorance,
fatigue, short-term memory, and impatience in order to minimise
their impact. Scientific Writing A Reader and Writer's Guide
electronic version is attached. Thank you very much 哇。。。 謝謝暸,下下來看看。。。 Thanksa lot! 的确很有用。
