Recenzii

"Academic Writing for Military Personnel is a short, focused, useful book... a welcome addition to the reference library of anyone in uniform." -- Canadian Air Force Journal "Using the unique perspective they have gained from both their academic experience and their direct involvement in the professional development of senior officers, Adam Chapnick and Craig Stone have created an eminently readable and practical guide to academic writing for military personnel. In so doing, they have rendered an invaluable service to the development of these competencies within the current and future cohorts of senior military personnel." -- LtGen (ret'd) Fred Sutherland "The prescriptions for writing are clear, and the format and organization make great sense. This book will be a tremendous asset to all." -- MGen (ret'd) Ivan Fenton "In my former profession as an academic I read many books on academic writing over the years. This one ranks among the best." -- MGen (ret'd) Herb Petras
