Concise and Complete

If you are about to start work on a disertation and intend to buy just one book on how to manage it, this would be a very good choice. However do read more than one!

A comprehensive guide to the dissertation!

As someone who works privately with students, helping them with dissertations and theses, I highly recommend this book. When students call me in regard to assistance with their dissertation or thesis, I recommend that they buy this book and use it as an ongoing reference. As the title states, the information contained in this book anticipates and answers many of the questions that students have about the dissertation process, from proposal to completion. It is the most comprehensive guideline that I have come across in recent years.
