Scientific Style and Format
by
ISBN: 0226116492Publication Date: 2014-05-07For more than fifty years, authors, editors, and publishers in the scientific community have turned to Scientific Style and Format for authoritative recommendations on all matters of writing style and citation. Developed by the Council of Science Editors (CSE), the leading professional association in science publishing, this indispensable guide encompasses all areas of the sciences.
The Council of Sciences Editors Style Manual is often used by students in Biology to format their manuscripts, citations and reference lists. You should check with your professor to make sure this is the format you are supposed to use. Use this book for in depth information on CSE style, or use its SSF Citation Quick Guide to view common citation examples.
