Rezensionen

'In its new edition, it has been significantly updated and improved, and has lost little of the value of the first edition ... The book is targeted at all scientists whether school age or hardened/wizeneed professionals ... This book should be on an eye level shelf in every scientist's office and possibly many others where people are expected to react scientifically ... I would recommend it to every school and university department library.' - Myles Ripley, Biologist

'Many job applicants and neophytes in the presenting and publishing scene can benefit from the direction provided in this volume'. - Journal for Research in Mathematics Education
