Publishing and Presenting Clinical Research, Second Edition

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 28-FEB-07, Xavier Bosch, MD, PhD, Hospital Clinic, University of Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain -- "A clinical researcher and editor, Browner shows, in 14 well-defined chapters, how to report research findings and prepare academic papers for peer-reviewed medical journals, oral presentations, and poster sessions. The book is a highly effective reference manual that will help young physicians and would-be investigators to overcome any initial fears and, in addition, aid experienced academic physicians in training and mentoring younger colleagues...Besides providing examples that help to clarify the distinction between authors and nonauthors, Browner provides templates to deal tactfully with potential problems associated with listings and order of authorship...The chapters on oral presentations and posters are outstanding, with special sections on "Dealing With Anxiety," "Practicing Your Talk," "Answering Questions," and "Advice for Non-English Speakers."...With Browner's book, writing a manuscript should no longer be such an arduous task. His manual may also encourage authors who report in languages other than English to disseminate their findings among the wider community of clinical researchers."-Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA)
