A good guide for the dissertation writing process January 9, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
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.

designed mainly for social science ABDs March 10, 2008 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am going to see what could be made relevant to my research in English, but it was frustrating to see that it is so geared towards social scientists. The book has every right to focus on a particular type of graduate student (however it should be noted, I think), but since humanities grads are seen as fluffy, redundant and not "fact" finders, this book is not comforting for me to read. It re-emphasizes empirical evidence and thus continues to suggest (by not mentioning them)that humanities dissertations do not "prove" anything. While my dissertation will be organized around a "problem" of a certain kind, it is not something that can be tested or measured in the same ways as a social scientist's research. This makes it even more challenging to specifically define and finish. The book still looks well-written and addresses some areas that should be helpful if only mentally.
