More evidence to confound those who doubt the wisdom of
extending the
benefits of higher education to a wider populace: book review
on Amazon
of 'Writing your dissertation...' ...
"I bought this
book some time ago, knowing that i would have to choose a
dissertation for
when i go back to university in Sept 2004. The task is
much more difficult as
i am currently on placement in Westminster and my
university is in Sheffield
so its impossible to recieve any help/ advice
on what i am supposed to do. I
haven't read a book in at least 8 years
and then that was a shakespear book
for my GCSE's i think? Anyway this
was the first book i have read in all that
time and found it easy to get
into. It had some nice tips and advice on how
to choose the right
subject. It was very limited in parts and after reading
two thirds of
the way into the book i got bored and just flicked through the
rest - it
was unhelpful for my subject of Business information systems as i
think
it is more aimed at social degree's and masters thesis students. I
did
take a couple of tips from it and feel that it was a good first book
to
read in order to progress onto other more MEATY titles, which will
go
more into depth about dissertation writing. I have Since gave the
book
to my girlfriend and read three other titles (becoming the
proverbial
book worm) - i hope she gets more from it than i did. I will see
if it
was helpful, when i begin my final year in Sept."
