Where and how to give an overview of each chapter in scientific writing? @Neil Fein: Lucky and burdened with choices. Oh yes, I've heard of MLA. Do you happen to know whether the "CMOS for academic writing" is any good? |

Where and how to give an overview of each chapter in scientific writing? Thanks for the answer, I feel quite confirmed - especially putting much time into the index (+1). |

Where and how to give an overview of each chapter in scientific writing? I have the liberty to pick. I do like APA's style of citing, and often pick what CMOS suggests if I can't decide based on other criteria. (What's MLA?) |

Should I prefer long or short sentences in scientific writing? Yes, I see it the same way. I'd say chopping makes sense if sentences become longer than roughly 20 words (highly dependent on the sentence, though). |

Should I prefer long or short sentences in scientific writing? What, if chopping is really easy? Simple example: The solution is foo that has to do bar and therefore goes baz. -> The solution is foo that has to do bar. Therefore, it goes baz. Which one is better? Up to which length of the sentences? |

Should I prefer long or short sentences in scientific writing? @M.A: I like your comment (+1). Why don't you write it as an answer? |

Should I prefer long or short sentences in scientific writing? +1 for "making the text easiest to understand". But after doing some research, I am afraid that too many too short sentences might make the text choppy, therefore not easier to understand. |
