520 1 $a"Practicing scientists know that the quality of their livelihood is strongly connected to the quality of their writing, and critical thinking is the most necessary and valuable tool for effectively generating and communicating scientific information. Writing in the Life Sciences is an innovative, process-based text that gives beginning writers the tools to write about science skillfully by taking a critical thinking approach." "Author Laurence Greene emphasizes "writing as thinking" as he takes beginning writers through the important stages of planning, drafting, and revising their work. Each chapter addresses a focused writing task and uses systematic critical reading and thinking activities to help scientific writers develop the skills to communicate successfully."--BOOK JACKET.
