Look no further than A Practical Guide to Scientific and Technical Translation! In this comprehensive one-stop guide, two experienced authors with extensive reviewing and translating experience across a diverse range of scientific fields come to your aid. Whether you're directly authoring in a language foreign to you or translating from an existing text, this book will help you produce professional-quality documents.

While it's not a text on English grammar, it serves as a troubleshooting guide to linguistic and style errors. We'll guide you through overcoming at least the most common challenges you may encounter. Additionally, we'll delve into technical terminology searching and choice, providing examples from various scientific (physics, chemistry) and engineering disciplines (aviation, transportation, nuclear, environment, and more). With advice on selecting the right term for the right job, you'll be able to communicate your ideas effectively.

While the emphasis is on producing documents in English, the book also discusses general translation concepts, making it valuable for translators and scientists who need to present their work in languages other than English. So, whether you're a researcher, engineer, or professional seeking to enhance your English language skills, A Practical Guide to Scientific and Technical Translation is your go-to resource. Don't let language barriers hold you back – let us help you achieve your publishing goals!
