| Summary |
"This book teaches what clinicians need to know about medical writing and publishing. It is for the physician, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner who sees patients and also wants to contribute to the medical literature, as well as for the assistant professor aspiring to promotion. It is written from the viewpoint of the clinician seeking the personal enrichment that writing can bring. Readers learn how to translate observations and ideas from practice into written form and eventually into print."--Jacket |
