Review : From our correspondent

Ever wanted to be a science writer? You could do a lot worse than read A
Field Guide for Science Writers edited by Deborah Blum and Mary Knudson.
Entertainingly written, this superb book covers all aspects of the trade,
offering advice and personal anecdotes from some of America’s best-known science
journalists. Invaluable. Published by Oxford University Press (USA), $25,
ISBN 0 19 510068 9.
