This book is essential reading for postgraduate students who want to gain as much as possible from their work and complete their research on time.
Professor Dag Husebo, University of Stavanger, Norway
If you are an early stage researcher seeking reassurance and guidance on undertaking a research project, you must read this book. It takes you stage by stage through the process of designing and carrying out a research project, helps with common problems, team work, lack of motivation and problem solving. It also assists you in dealing with feedback and managing your time effectively. The book should be on every emerging researcher's desk.
Professor Rosemary Deem, Royal Holloway, University of London
An essential guide for doctoral students as they navigate the way to becoming tomorrow's research leaders.
Professor Alistair McCulloch, University of Southern Australia
