A good guide for the dissertation writing process
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book was recommended by my dissertation chair (which meant I HAD to buy it). Once I got it and read through it, I found it to be surprisingly helpful. I just got the book yesterday and I have already filled the margins with notes and post-its. It is a good resource to have and am glad I got it at the beginning stages of the dissertation writing process.
Handy Guide
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is providing me with excellent guidance throughout my dissertation process. Honestly, it has even been more helpful than my advisor. As many doctoral students do, I keep odd hours while writing, often getting my best ideas in the middle of the night. It is great to be able to access my handy advisor 24/7, meaning that my ideas have been easily acted upon no matter what time of day or night I think of them. A bit pricey, but well worth it for me.
Comprehensive and Clear
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is an outstanding guide for the dissertation process. I have consulted several other similar works on how to write a dissertation but this is the one I have relied on the most because it is comprehensive and very easy to follow. The entire text can be read in a few hours for a very good over view of the process. Then it becomes a very handy "survival" life line when problems come up.
Easy reading!

With all the other texts in my doctorial work, this book took the stress off of the reading. The writers have done a terrific job laying out the chapters. The reading is easy on the eyes and put in simple terms. While reading, I could understand the first time without having to reread and my mind did not wander. Great text!
This book was my bible going through my dissertation process
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This gem of a book is truly a life saver to any doctoral student navigating the rough waters of the dissertation process. Drs. Kjell Rudestam and Rae Newton take a usually convoluted process and map out a clear path that easy to follow from start to finish. This book was my bible going through my dissertation. The authors' clarity of writing and comprehensive thought allowed me to easily take the principles off the pages and put them into practice. I highly recommend it!
