Reviews for Writing Skills for Nursing and Midwifery Students
The book is well conceived with familiar guidance on study skills and the basics of sentence and paragraph structure.  It has a chapter on attribution of sources and avoidance of plagiarism, and there is a useful brief review of academic versus professionals writing for the press and for writing presentations.
