| Abstract | One of the universal roles of an educator is to convey to students the necessary study and communication skills, whether in science or in arts and humanities. This book addresses these key skills as a manual for students through their course and as preparation to enhance their attractiveness to employers. The book is stated to be for bioscientists. The examples are from bioscience, such as measuring the leap distances of a laboratory population of locusts or migratory behaviours of geese, but are readily understandable for all. I liked this book and indeed wished I had had such a book when I was a student. I will explain why I liked it, and it is not surprising to me that it has reached a third edition. I will pick out some interesting oddities, though, that the book has in my view. There are 15 chapters: |
