How to Write, Publish, and Present in the Health Sciences

A lucid, knowledgeable, and engaging guide on to how to publish your research, and how to do it well. Its like having a journal editor whisper in your ear as you write. This book has information that nobody tells you but is critical to know when you submit to a journal. A few hours with this book will provide wisdom that otherwise might take years of frustrating journal submissions to acquire (and not to mention minimize your rejections)." —Steven Goodman, MD, PhD, Johns Hopkins Schools of Medicine and Public Health

"Langs earlier book on how to report medical statistics proved so useful to me that I bought a second copy to keep in my home office. His new book features the same type of pragmatic advice on the nuts and bolts of scientific writing. A more descriptive subtitle for this book might be things I wish I knew when I was starting out. This book could have saved me considerable effort over the years." —David A. Grimes, M.D., UNC School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, NC

"Tom Lang goes beyond being an expert in health science publishing because his books increase the potential of everyone in the field. In each chapter of this book, he presents realistic examples in considerable detail, allowing readers to learn approaches that are truly helpful to authors and editors." —Cate Timmerman Co-President Palladian Partners, Inc.
