Completing Your Qualitative Dissertation Reviews

This book is a 'must have' for all doctoral students from their acceptance into a program until they upload their finished dissertation to their institutional library. Forget Agatha Christie; they should keep this on their bed side table until it is dog-eared and they have graduated. -- Shelley K. Taylor
I will continue to use Completing Your Qualitative Dissertation until I find a better text, and that just does not seem likely. The authors' writing is straightforward; they write as academics, from an academic bent, yet write practically for doctoral candidates who need guidance, a road map of how to complete their dissertation. -- JoAnn Danelo Barbour
An excellent resource for doctoral students! The authors take the fear of writing a dissertation, and break down each component into manageable tasks that once completed will help students deliver a scholarly research project: a project that they will be proud to defend! -- Joe R. Putulowski
