When people sign up for doctoral study, they don't always realise that in the process they need to write a book. The doctoral thesis or dissertation is the length of an average paperback. Even people studying for a professional doctorate, or a PhD by publication, need to write the equivalent of a short literary novel. Writing so much can be a daunting prospect. This fully updated second edition e-book is filled with practical advice and tips to get you started and help you keep going.
