In this book, she distils her advice into one essential guide to writing dissertations and research projects and addresses the most common concerns and questions that science students have.

The structure of the book mirrors key stages of a research project or dissertation, making it easy for students to dip in and out as they work on their project. With lists, step-by-step guides and plenty of practical examples, each chapter helps readers to approach their research in a focused and efficient manner.
