Brilliant!! - By: , 02 Feb 2006 
After pondering over which book to select to help me write my dissertation I chose this one & I'm so glad that I did. Before reading this book I knew nothing about the various chapters you should include in your dissertation. This book teaches you alot about how to structure your work & with its detailed explanations alllows you to become familiar with various terminology. Alongside reading this book I attended dissertation lectures offered by my degree institution. Because I had read this book I found it easy to relate to the information given by my tutor. I am still writing my dissertation & constantly refer back to this book. I am a drama degree student & feel that anyone studying any degree subject would find it very useful.
Addresses students' concerns. - By: bearwrite@aol.com, 01 Feb 2002 As someone who works privately with students, helping them with dissertations, I highly recommend this book. When students contact me in regard to assistance with their dissertation, I recommend that they buy this book & use it as a reference. The information contained in this book anticipates & answers the questions that students have about the dissertation process & the contents of each chapter. It is one of the most practical guides for writing a dissertation that I have come across.
Pricey but ultimately Priceless - By: , 24 Aug 2001 
This is without doubt the best of the vast number of dissertation study guides available. Despite being a little pricey in comparison to others the scope & quality of advice in this book is priceless during those panic moments of dissertation writing.
