The Writing of Medical Papers
Abstract
Scientists, and medical men are scientists, have been attacked for the poor quality of their writing, and yet, as Professor Kapp (1950) remarked at a meeting of the British Association a few years ago, during the past half century talk and paper have acquired for the scientist a significance greater than they ever had before; they are now among the more important tools with which he must work. Scientists should “attempt deliberately and systematically to raise the standards of exposition, study the technique in all its aspects, and try to perfect and teach it.”
