Scientific Style and Format: The CBE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers

by Edward J. Huth (Editor), Council of Science Editors

Scientific Style and Format: the CBE Manual for Authors, Editors, and Publishers, Sixth Edition, is a detailed and authoritative manual recommending both general and scientific publication styles and formats for journals, books, and other forms of publication. It covers all sciences, not just biology and the medical sciences, and both American and British preferences are recognised. Every author of a scientific paper or book will profit from this essential resource. Editors and publishers engaged in the sciences, students in the sciences, and translators of scientific papers destined for English-language publication will also find this manual an invaluable resource. It is far more up-to-date, more specific, more authoritative, and easier to use than any other reference to scientific style and format.

I thought that being published by University of Chicago Press that it was going to be a supplement to the Chicago Manual of Style for technical writing. That's kind of what it is - but it isn't as clean and nuanced as The Chicago Manual of Style. It's more useful for its references than its body.
