Guidebook to Better Medical Writing is the how-to book for those who want practical advice on writing journal articles, case reports, book chapters, books and scientific poster exhibits.
It stems from the author's more than 30 years of writing and teaching others how to write these materials.The content is presented in a quick-to-grasp, logical progression with step-by-step directions, examples, checklists, tips and techniques. Topics included range from the basics of how to choose better words and how to write better sentences and paragraphs through how to choose the right journal, how to get more writing done and how to work successfully with journal editors and reviewers. The revised 2003 edition follows the 1997 first edition that has been used by biomedical scientists around the globe and has also been issued in a Japanese-language edition (12 Steps to Better Medical Papers, Medical View Publishers, Tokyo).

Great writing hints:
I think all of us writing and teaching graduate students should buy this book and keep at your desk for periodic reminders about good writing...I will suggest that my students and colleagues purchase this--it is handy and great--very precise and to the point (as our writing should be!) Kudos!!
Guidebook to Better Medical Writing:
This a very friendly, and yet, powerful book that allows the reader to review basics of grammar, punctuation, spelling, and general writing rules.
A simply way to write a scientific paper:
This is a good book to learn how to successfully write a paper.Good luck!
A bit too elementary:
A good deal of what this book covers should already be known to a professional writer. That said, the book reminds the writer about the special characteristics of medical writing.
