About the author Since 1984, I have been editing and revising academic papers written by nonnative researchers. I divide my time between England and Italy, where I also hold seminars on how to write and present research papers. I have written extensively on the English language
for Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press, and the BBC. You can find me on Amazon, Academia,
Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter.
