TO THE INTERNATIONAL STUDENT 330 $aElectronic publishing and electronic means of text and data presentation have changed enormously since the first edition was first published in 1997. This second edition applies traditional principles to today's, modern techniques. In addition to substantial changes on the poster presentations and visual aids chapters, the chapter on proposal writing discusses in more detail grant writing proposals. A new chapter has also been dedicated to international students studying in the United States.Selected Contents:-Searching and Reviewing Scientific Literature-The Graduate Thesis 606 $aTechnical writing 606 $aCommunication of technical information 606 $aWriting 606 $aCommunication 606 $aMisinformation 606 $aWriting$3(DNLM)D014956 606 $aCommunication$3(DNLM)D003142 615 0$aTechnical writing. 615 0$aCommunication of technical information. 615 0$aWriting. 615 0$aCommunication. 615 0$aMisinformation. 615 12$aWriting 615 12$aCommunication 676 $a501/.4 700 $aDavis$b Martha$f1935-$01803314 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910974546603321 996 $aScientific papers and presentations$94350108 997 $aUNINA
