More Academic Advice

10 September 2010

| Peter Klein |

Inspired (in some cases, subconsciously) by our post on "How to Read an Academic Article," several professors have written follow-up or companion pieces offering advice to students and new faculty:

• "How to Review a Literature" by Gabriel Rossman (nice blog template BTW)
• "Writing 'One Pagers'" by Anthony Evans
• "How to Write Less Badly" by Mike Munger (via Pete Boettke)
• "How to Be Awesome" by Fabio Rojas

Of course there are the classics like Ezra Zuckerman's "Tips to Article Writers," Eric Rasmusen's "Aphorisms on Writing, Speaking, and Listening," Simon Jones's "How to Write a Good Research Paper and Give a Good Research Talk," Kwan Choi's "How to Publish in Top Journals," Dan Hamermesh's "The Young Economist's Guide to Professional Etiquette," Richard Hamming's "You and Your Research," and George Ladd's "Artistic Research Tools for Scientific Minds."
