内容説明

This immensely successful volume is not an arid list of Do's and Don'ts, though it is very practical in the advice it gives. It is a witty and engaging discussion, aiming to stimulate literary and historical research on the one hand, while disciplining it on the other. Although written primarily with students of literature and history in mind, it deals with issues of equal concern to students of law, social sciences and the physical sciences. Any students faced with a thesis, dissertation or extended essay should find it helpful and entertaining in equal measure.
