Eloquent Science: A Practical Guide to Becoming a Better Writer, Speaker, & Atmospheric Scientist was conceived from a workshop taught over six years to undergraduate students at a summer research experience. The volume is divided into three parts: writing, reviewing, and speaking, and offers tips on poster presentations, media communication, and advice for non-native speakers of English, as well as appendices on proper punctuation usage and meteorological concepts. Sidebars written by experts in the field offer diverse viewpoints on reference topics important to the reader, and a recommended reading section at the end of the book guides the reader to the best additional resources. Although the book is aimed at students and early career scientists, even senior scientists will find useful nuggets inside. In 2021, the book was translated into Chinese and published by the China Meteorological Press 论文写作、科技交流与审稿: 成为杰出科学家的必由之路 [Paper Writing, Scientific and Technological Exchanges and Manuscript Review: The Only Way to Become an Outstanding Scientist].
