The text offers advice and instruction on how to write and publish research articles. It is divided into three sections, Planning and Prepping, Writing the Article, and Publishing Your Writing. Each section delves more specifically into the topic, and Silvia offers his personal accounts of publishing as well. The tone of the short text is helpful and humorous. The graduate student who doesn't quite know where to start in terms of publishing will find numerous pointers in the text. Examples from real papers are offered, as well as useful templates. Each chapter ends with a summary, and each section ends with a wrap up. The last section discusses further research writing options. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
