Summary

This chapter emphasizes the fact that an author starts drafting a paper by compiling the results, the experimental findings (data) that have the evidence to support (or refute) the hypothesis under test. It emphasizes the need for selection to be fair considering positive, negative and neutral data, the order and logic in dealing with the sequence of presentation of the data, and how every experiment needs tight controls. Statistical issues are discussed.
