Remarks on Expository Writing in Mathematics
How to write a readable mathematics text
I came across this article from MathForge. It's a really interesting reading for anyone who needs to write a text on mathematic. It can seem really a specific reading but his goal is more than important. The reader targeted by it is the graduate student in mathematics. Personally I think that this article needs to be read by any university students in sciences. Writing is probably the core skill of all sciences. You need to know how to write your ideas to make them understandable by your peers. It's essential not just for publication but for everyday works. This assertion is more and more true with the place the Internet is now taking in universities around the world. Some can think that video and voice chat are the future. Personally I don't think so; even if it will be the case, for the moment, writing is the privileged communication medium.
