Haynes's writing is clear, concise, and coherent, and thus reflects hallmarks of effective academic prose (93); the work is short enough to be easily read over a weekend. To encapsulate his main ideas and remind readers of his key encouragements, Haynes concludes each chapter with lists of between three and twelve summary points. More than once, while reading Haynes's book, I noted that I wished I had read a certain illuminating or insightful passage before having written something else myself. (Coming from someone who reviews a lot of books on writing, that is high praise indeed.)
'Publish or perish' is a well-established adage in academia. Never has the pressure on academics to publish been greater. Yet the prospect of writing a book can seem daunting, while the business of getting it published may be mystifying. Written by an expert in academic publishing, Writing Successful Academic Books provides a practical guide to both writing and getting published. It covers all stages of academic authorship from developing the initial idea for a book through to post-publication issues, showing how to avoid the common pitfalls and achieve academic and professional success through publication. Full of real life examples, including a sample book proposal, the book covers everything you need to know to build up an authorial career. This is an invaluable guide for academic authors - prospective or established - in all disciplines. No library descriptions found. |
