Becoming metric-wise: a bibliometric guide for researchers

'Becoming Metric-Wise' aims to inform researchers about metrics so that they become aware of the evaluative techniques being applied to their scientific output.

Understanding these concepts will help them during their funding initiatives, and in hiring and tenure.

The book not only describes what indicators do (or are designed to do, which is not always the same thing), but also gives precise mathematical formulae so that indicators can be properly understood and evaluated.
