Product Description

Product Description

Completing your Qualitative Dissertation fills an important gap in the qualitative research literature by specifically addressing the fast-growing practice of qualitative postgraduate dissertations in colleges and universities throughout the world.

Many students struggle to complete qualitative research projects because the research itself is inherently messy. To address this challenge the authors have distilled decades of experience into a first-of-its-kind, highly practical reference for graduate students.

At the heart of the book is a series of chapters that models the typical progression of a dissertation. Each chapter is illustrated by examples that give the reader an understanding of what the actual write-up would look like. Emphasis throughout the book is on conceptual understanding as it relates to the practical aspects involved in navigating the dissertation process.

2.0 out of 5 stars A REASONABLE START, 21 Sep 2008
By Atha Fokias "Athas" (Leuven) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
To be truthful I got bored with this book.
It doesnt take 250+ pages to admonish a student into being organised, or to be led down a path of what to do.
It's out of date in many respects, doesn't handle project topic saving using modern methods. Research is the basis for dissertations or theses, not following these books, better to listen to your prof or supervisor.
New tricks to short circuit research leave this book in the cold. I used QUESTIA and in 3 months my 2nd 12000 word dissertation was done. I am using it again for 100,000 word thesis and couldnt live without it. Read this book, and I am sure in one week you will have forgotten it.
