Markman (emeritus, Fullerton College, Fullerton, California) et al. present this guide to research paper writing. The authors have formatted the process into 10 simple steps: finding a subject, reading a general article, preparing a temporary thesis and outline, preparing a preliminary bibliography, taking notes from relevant sources, preparing notecards and revising outline, writing the first draft, revising the text, checking references, and preparing the final draft. Each step is explained in detail and the authors provide a wealth of advice along the way. This guide is a valuable resource for those needing to brush up on the research paper process.
