Scary secrets about ghostwriting in journals
Just in time for Halloween, an anonymous medical ghostwriter spoke to Phil Davis over at the Scholarly Kitchen about the scary world of ghostwriting.
He reveals how much ghostwriters are paid, how the process works, where his work has been published, how to detect ghostwritten material and more.
The Scholarly Kitchen is a blog from the Society for Scholarly Publishing.
