Scientific research requires both innovation and attention to detail,
clever breakthroughs and routine procedures. This indispensable guide
gives students and researchers across all scientific disciplines
practical advice on how to succeed. All types of scientific careers
are discussed, from those in industry and academia to consulting, with
emphasis on how scientists spend their time and the skills that are
needed to be productive. Strategic thinking, creativity and
problem-solving, the central keys to success in research, are all
explored. The reader is shown how to enhance the creative process in
science, how one goes about making discoveries, putting together the
solution to a complex problem and then testing the solution obtained.
The social dimension of science is also discussed from the development
and execution of a scientific research program to publishing papers,
as well as issues of ethics and science policy.
