Scientific Style and Format ─ The CSE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers

Scientific Style and Format is the most recognized, authoritative reference source on editorial style and publishing practices for authors, editors, publishers, students, and translators in all areas of science and related fields.

The new edition offers a revised citation system, up-to-date coverage of technologies related to both scientific research methods and publishing practices, updated discussion of plagiarism and other aspects of academic integrity, full coverage of Creative Commons and other developments in copyright law, and changes in stylistic recommendations that are consistent with the recommendations of authoritative international bodies.
