English for Scientific Research is a practical guide and reference book for those who need some clear guidelines and models for writing academic articles in English. The models used are of scientific texts but the language points and structures are applicable to all empirical research. The basic aspects of English grammar relevant to scientific writing in general are explained initially. Other chapters take published articles as models for analysis and comment. Relevant language and structural patterns, typical of abstracts, summaries, introductions, methods, results, discussions and conclusions, are demonstrated, then discussed and practised in context. The self-study practice exercises are designed for readers to comment on and compare their comments with the detailed discussion in the keys. The purpose of this is to show how clear, correct and elegant English can be produced confidently in research papers. All researchers who are not native speakers of English will find this book a useful and practical support in their research writing. Doctoral students will find it essential.
