Notes from Reading “How to Write and Publish a Scientific Paper “, 4th edition by Robert A. Day
- The key characteristic of scientific writing is clarify. Scientific writing should be as clear and simple as possible.
- Title
** A good title is using the fewest possible words that adequately describe the contents of the paper.
** Avoid waste words such as “Studies on”, “Investigations on”, and opening “A, An, The”.
** The title should be as specific as possible.
** Title is a label not a sentence.
** Avoid abbreviations and jargons
