Description

The key to good and efficient writing lies in the intelligent organisation of ideas and notes. This book helps students, academics, and nonfiction writers to get more done, write smarter texts, and learn for the long run. It teaches you how to take smart notes and ensure they bring you and your projects forward. The Take Smart Notes principle is based on established psychological insight and draws from a tried-and-tested note-taking technique. This is the first comprehensive guide in English to this system, and it explains how it works and why. It suits students and academics in the social sciences and humanities, nonfiction writers, and others who read, think, and write. Instead of wasting your time searching for notes, quotes, or references, you can focus on what really counts: thinking, understanding, and developing new ideas in writing. It does not matter if you prefer taking notes with pen and paper or on a computer, be it Windows, Mac or Linux. And you can start right away.
