Decent read for writing a master's thesis, although some of the conventions I do not agree with. For example, I do not like splitting the introduction into Chapter 1 (Introduction) and Chapter 2 (Literature Review). I also do not like the somewhat "hard" suggestions of 3 ideas, 3 problem statements, 3 solutions, etc. The point of parallelism is great, but the number "rules" don't always make sense.

I owe my M.A to this book! A very thorough but easy to navigate how-to guide for a Thesis! I love the way this is organized, it was an easy flow and honestly I think I have a stronger paper in the end because of this. I wrote following these guidelines and then just needed a quick APA reference to solidify. Highly recommend this book for grad students!

Naprosto super kniha, díky které konečně vím jak napsat diplomku! Asi nemám nic, co bych vytkla, opravdu jsem moc ráda, že jsem si knihu přečetla, a konečně mám aspoň malou představu o tom, jak by má závěrečná práce magisterského studia měla vypadat :)
