A propos du livre

... university students of all stages, lecturers and eminent professors, research workers in general, book and journal editors, referees, and their would-be authors, could all benefit from reading this book and they should find it an enjoyable and informative experience. (Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science)

Valiela's style is very readable, often enlivened by references to the history of science, and I found much that he had to say of interest. (Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science)

Doing Science is aimed at the entire spectrum of those who might be engaged in, or contemplating, the practice of science - from students to their mentors and other professionals. (Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science)
