For more than 25 years, this book has guided student writers through the practical, logistical, and emotional struggles that come with writing dissertations and theses.

It offers guidance to students through all the essential steps, including:

• defining topics

• scheduling time to work on the project
• conducting, analyzing, writing, presenting, and publishing research

This fully-updated third edition includes guiding questions, checklists, diagrams, and sample research papers. It also reflects the most recent advances in online research and includes fully updated online resources.

Each chapter begins with an Advance Organizer that offers an at-a-glance summary of chapter content and applicability for different types of readers. Chapters also include significantly expanded “To Do” and “Supplemental Resource” lists, as well as helpful suggestions for dealing with impasses and common internal and external “traps” that recur throughout the writing process.

The authors also provide a thoughtful consideration of the variety of roles faculty advisors play, and of variations in the thesis and dissertation process and requirements across institutions of higher learning.

Bell, Foster, and Cone draw from their many years of experience working with graduate students and input from their colleagues to offer this valuable resource to help students make the most of their graduate school experience. They provide sage advice on practical issues such as time management, basic skills such as writing and making oral presentations, and on more technical topics such as methodology and statistical analysis. Faculty interested in improving their mentoring will also find their advice helpful. —Albert D. Farrell, PhD Commonwealth Professor, Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond

What a rich resource! The authors strike just the right tone: clear, direct, and supportive. Students (and their advisors) will especially like the detailed checklists. —Timothy A.
