About the book

"Aimed primarily at undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral students in the natural sciences, Survival Guide for Scientists presents Lagendijk's practical how-to advice on essential topics such as the foundations for writing scientific texts, presenting data and research information, and the writing and reading of collegial emails. Each section is organized by a collection of short rules, outlined and numbered in a logical order as self-explanatory pieces of information, allowing the reader the freedom to study any number of them in any desired order. These concrete guidelines, supplemented by an extensive index with easy navigation, secure a place for the Survival Guide for Scientists on the shelves of scientific scholars and students alike. But it doesn't stop there: many of the hints, in particular those referring to presentations, are of invaluable use for a much broader audience of professionals, up to consultants and (public) managers."--Jacket.
