Synopsis

Good science deserves good sentences, not just correct ones. Writing Science hones the confidence and skills students need for dynamic and persuasive writing in STEM fields.

Science writing presents unique challenges. Questions about diverse audiences, ethical complexity, and multimodal formats—not to mention clarity and accuracy—abound. Writing Science helps students in all STEM fields navigate these daunting demands. The authors offer a systematic rhetorical approach, emphasizing purpose, audience (both professional and public), structure, tone, evidence, and visuals.

Concise and current, the book provides practical strategies for a wide range of scientific writing tasks, supported by examples from multiple disciplines. It prepares students to write and speak with confidence, accuracy, clarity, and persuasive impact.

This extensively revised second edition covers generative AI throughout—each chapter introduces tools and strategies for using it ethically and effectively. New material addresses the growing challenge of communicating science in public contexts, and supporting exercises—already a strength in the first edition—have been expanded, offering writers more chances to apply key concepts to their writing.
