81 Preparing Scientific Works
– Appropriate brevity and respect of the reader's time.
– Simple and clear vocabulary; only use complex expressions where simple ones would
not work.
In addition: Whoever holds his work back from the public for reasons of confidentiality (works
which are blocked means that they cannot be shared), are not perceived by the public. One can
counter this by banning the keeping of secrets in setting up the work.
