As a history student, I find it unfortunate that this book (which is required for my thesis prep. class) is so heavily geared toward "quantitative" research. In other words, this book seems to provide a very clear formula for analyzing subjects pertaining to the realm of the sciences (in which numbers are the basis for research), wheras "qualitative" (non-numerical) research is kind of shoved to the side and alluded to only on occasion. Perhaps this is simply because a guide to more formulaic studies is naturally easier to write, but because this was still required reading, I constantly found myself asking, "How do the humanities fit into this again?"

This book is filled with so much useful information on all of the ins and outs of writing a master's thesis that I cannot imagine how anyone could write without it. It answers all of the questions you did not even know you had about search engines and exactly how each chapter has to be structured and how to put all of the chapters together. I am just in the beginning stages of writing my thesis but I am certainly glad that I have this book as my companion on the journey.

This is a useful book and it's helping me especially in the statistics description, every director and student should have it. I strongly recommend it. The author has the quality of describing every single step in such a clear way that makes your work flow. Congratulations to the author, I really appreciate her job.

This is such a well-written, upbeat book, who wouldn't want to write their Master's thesis? Seriously, this book is full of great organizational and writing tips; it makes the process seem more doable. Every week in my research class we talk about how great this book is!

An excellent book that's a true "how to guide" with details on exactly what to write and how to structure your thesis.. A must read for anyone starting their masters thesis.......

Bui's tome is quite informative, but also a bit entertaining. Her examples and quips provide much-needed relief for the thesis-writing graduate student. It almost feels as though you have a friend at your fingertips. I was extremely pleased with this selection, and I know that I will refer to it often in the weeks to come.

This is a good book. It helps me. It is nice to have this book from the first semester of the master's degree.

Seems to be great help but I unfortunately don't need it for what I'm doing right now except for maybe a reference guide.
