Writing Your Thesis or Dissertation
"Excellent -- another book about writing!" - Nobody. Ever. There are lots of books about writing a thesis or dissertation. This is one of them. ...with a twist. Yes, it includes advice about writing, revision, formatting, and so forth. It also includes advice about topics like project management skills, interpersonal dynamics, and self-care. These are all things the author either wasn't told or (more likely) didn't pay attention to, back in the dark ages of the twentieth century when he was in graduate school. It's all important stuff. It's also stuff "they" may not tell you. Someone should. Tackling a serious subject from a perspective that is sometimes light-hearted, sometimes caustic, but always supportive, Dr. Morrie Mullins draws on over 20 years mentoring student theses and dissertations in a book designed to help graduate students succeed. He offers advice to help grad students not just write and defend their thesis or dissertation, but to build skills for life.
