Doing Science, second edition, offers a rare compendium of practical advice based on how working scientists pursue their craft. It covers each stage of research, from formulating questions and gathering data to developing experiments and analyzing results and finally to the many ways for presenting results.

He includes chapters on scientific data, statistical methods, and experimental designs, and much of the book is devoted to presenting final results.
