′This is a practical and engaging guide to completing a
dissertation or thesis. Drawing on the author’s extensive
experience and expertise, the book contains a raft of insights,
hints and tips. It will be of great value to all post-graduate
students of nursing and midwifery.′

Hull*
Writing is at the heart of academic life. Through this concise
guide, Dena Bain Taylor has not only provided an invaluable
resource for graduate students learning to master writing and
critical thinking, she has provided excellent suggestions for
navigating the realms of presenting and publishing.
*Elizabeth Peter, Associate Professor in the Lawrence S. Bloomberg
Faculty of Nursing, University of Toronto*
The author draws on her own extensive experience and expertise to
present the reader with practical strategies for each stage of the
writing process from the initial critical reading through to
submission of the final piece of work. The book has been written in
a straightforward, user friendly style that takes the post graduate
student through the process of writing each chapter of their
dissertation/thesis through to some excellent suggestions for
preparing for the viva. I would recommend this as essential reading
for post graduate nursing and healthcare related students.
