Research Ethics for Scientists is about best practices in all the
major areas of research management and practice that are common to
scientific researchers, especially those in academia. Aimed towards the
younger scientist, the book critically examines the key areas that
continue to plague even experienced and well-meaning science
professionals.
For ease of use, the book is arranged in functional themes and units
that every scientist recognizes as crucial for sustained success in
science; ideas, people, data, publications and funding. These key themes
will help to highlight the elements of successful and ethical research
as well as challenging the reader to develop their own ideas of how to
conduct themselves within their work.
