How to Write a Better Thesis by David Evans
This concise guide emphasizes clear and logical structure as the key to a well-written thesis. The book uses a direct and conversational tone while offering concrete examples of common structural problems and the numerous devices, tricks, and tests for avoiding them. It proves that the astute researcher must no longer regard writing as the last chore but rather as a crucial part of the research process. This updated edition demonstrates how computer software can be advantageous and includes a checklist to keep students organized.
Clear, coherent, informative and practical - this book with its transparent approach, chapter summaries and checklists, actually practices what it preaches when it states "People won't trouble to understand your ideas if they have to struggle with your writing, while clear lively writing creates the impression that what you say is worth understanding" (page 196)I recommend this book as a 'must-read' to anyone starting on their thesis writing journey." —Dr Meg O'Reilly, Senior Lecturer, Division of Teaching & Learning, Southern Cross University
