4.0 out of 5 stars Great strenths, some weaknesses, November 8, 1999
By A Customer
This book is designed for both students and faculty, so it spends a lot of time giving advice to both sides. That is the primary reason for the length.

Coverage is very thorough for the political and social aspects of dissertation writing, probably more so than in any other book. Choosing a topic is also well covered. The main weakness is in specifics of producing the document, e.g. how to write the literature review or present the methodology.

This book should definitely be on the shelf of any faculty, but a student may do better to look it over in the library. A good, concise treatment of the disseration process is Davis & Parker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expensive!! But well worth the investment!, January 22, 1998
By 
jaasr@msn.com (Washington, D.C.) - See all my reviews
James E. Mauch and Jack W. Burch have put together a guide that breaks down the process step by step. The questions they list, the time tables they suggest, and tips provide the reader with insight as to what can be expected and how to avoid some of the most common pitfalls. This book is a must for students who must complete either a Thesis or Dissertation. It will become a valuable part of your personal reference library. Expensive, but worth the investment!!!

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The product arrived on time; however, the glass was broken. The item was packaged poorly as the glass was not wrapped and protected.
