Review :
This straightforward book leads students through the processes involved in undertaking literature reviews and offers structured advice for anyone wanting to learn the subtleties and nuances of reviewing literature. Demonstrates a sound understanding of the issues students need to address when writing a literature review. A very useful guide which I will be recommending to my students. The author reassuringly acknowledges concerns that I’ve seen commonly arise with students who are tasked with writing literature reviews, and gives specific, practical guidance about how to work effectively through the various stages.
