Présentation de l'éditeur

Many men and women who unfortunately do not possess the art of writing and have not acquired its usable substitute, the craft of writing, have yet chosen medicine as a lifework, for success in which they should be able to write well for the medical profession. They desire therefore to acquire the craft of writing with the least possible effort or delay. For these there is a need, not for new manuals, but for a handbook adapted especially to their profession and including the essential points to be found in general textbooks. The present handbook is an attempt to supply this need in a brief form, for writers of medical papers, and for those who edit, or read proof on such papers. Quotations have been used freely where the thought has been already happily expressed by others. The topics have been reduced to a minimum, and rules have been made definite, even dogmatic, that they may be easy to refer to and follow. The subject matter has been arranged in two parts: specifically technical, Chapters I to VII, and general, Chapters VIII to XX.
