It's often challenging to take an idea from conceptualization to publication, and there is little guidance provided on how to navigate the process. An Insider's Guide to Academic Publishing in Orthopaedic and Spine Surgery aims to solve some of these problems by giving the reader a guideline on proper design, execution, synthesis and communication of ones research. The book is divided into four sections: General Considerations, Conduct of the Research and Writing, Submission Strategy and Post-Production. Additionally, the author also covers information on preparing your CV and building a research program. This book is authored by a leader in the field, of orthopaedic and spine surgery, for students and post-grads, residents and fellows who have not had adequate direction in publishing an article or presenting at conferences.
