Omschrijving

This book is based on a study of referees' reports and letters from journal editors on reasons why papers written by non-native researchers are rejected due to problems with English (long sentences, redundancy, poor structure etc.).

The exercises in this new edition are organized into twelve chapters on:

punctuation and spelling
word order
writing short sentences and paragraphs
being concise and removing redundancy
ambiguity and political correctness
paraphrasing and avoiding plagiarism
defining, comparing, evaluating and highlighting
anticipating possible objections, indicating level of certainty, discussing limitations, hedging, future work
using Large Language Models for writing papers, emails and presentation scripts

Some exercises require no actual writing but simply choosing between various options. In those exercises where extended writing is required, model answers are given.

The exercises can also be integrated into English for Academic Purposes (EAP) and English for Special Purposes (ESP) courses at universities and research institutes.

The book can be used in conjunction with the other exercise books in the series and is cross-referenced to:

English for Research: Usage, Style, and Grammar English for Writing Research Papers
English for Academic Research: Grammar Exercises

English for Academic Research: Teacher's Guide

Adrian Wallwork edits scientific papers and teaches English for Academic Purposes (EAP) to PhD students. In addition to his many books for Springer, he has written course books for Oxford University Press and discussion books for Cambridge University Press.
