It's not for scientific writing per se, but I commonly refer to The
Elements of Style (Strunk and White).

Dear ECOLOGers,
I was wondering if any of you would have some suggestion on books or texts
providing tips on how
to improve scientific writing. I have read George Gopen’s book (The sense of
structure, writing from
the reader's perspective; 2004, Pearson Longman editors) and recommend it, but
I would like to
know if there are any other good references out there.
Thanks in advance for your help!
