In this survival guide, the authors provide down to earth advice on how to avoid the pitfalls encountered by most students when writing their thesis."" -Professor Olivier Furrer, Chair of Marketing, University of Fribourg (Switzerland) ""Graduate students are often not explicitly taught how to write a thesis or dissertation, and this modern ""how to"" guide can provide actionable answers to the questions they have!
