Research Papers for Dummies could easily be called "Recipes for Research" because the same process is followed in every research production. You really can't find a simpler guide on the market that does justice to the important business of writing effective and intelligible research papers.

Of course finding the answers in short order is sometimes the key problem and I've found The Practical Pundit to be a quick solution to gathering my material prior to sitting down to order and write.

Research Papers for Dummies
I'm using this book to teach the subject to high school seniors. It is my favorite among many books on the subject. G. Woods has written a clever, clear, and complete book on a subject that can be dry, frustrating, and complex. I've encouraged my students to get their own copy and take it with them to college.

Being 44 and going back to school I was pretty nervous about writing research papers. This book helped me greatly, and what was most surprising is how readable it is. Instead of very dry prose, I found it to be informative and entertaining.
It helped me greatly and my first grade on my Masters level research paper was 99%.
I would recommend it to all new students and if I ever reach my goal of becoming an adjunct professor I am definitely going to recommend it to my students.

The book was in excellent condition. I received the book within the time that was stated, which was good. The contents of the book is just what I was looking for. Easy to read chapters with great tip toward research work.

Great, this is very helpful for my College Course; it is a refresher for me

the book gives great information, but no solid examples for you to go by. it's a great read, but I learn better from seeing what what I am reading. I owuld not buy this book again.

Most of the information you find in this book is located in at least two other places: the text book required for the class, and other books that cover the topic far better than this one. It might help you write a "C" paper, but it will nto help you write and "A" paper. I should know. I grade these every day.

I only purchased this because I saw it appearing in the halls. It's not that it's wrong, it's incomplete. Not worth the money.
