- "This book has become a trusted resource for students from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds. Not only does it take you through the steps and stages of thesis writing, but more importantly, it offers rich advice and support that helps build confidence, sets up effective writing habits and generates a positive orientation towards the complex task of thesis writing". (Professor Sarah Moore, Associate Vice President Academic, University of Limerick, Ireland). "I've found Rowena's shrewd and insightful suggestions for writing helpful, not only for others but also for me". (Peter Elbow, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA). Providing down-to-earth guidance to help students shape their theses, Rowena Murray offers valuable advice and practical tips and techniques. Useful summaries and checklists help students to stay on track or regain their way.
