Simple Guide to Completing Your Dissertation: It's a Marathon Not a Sprint

You're trying to finish your dissertation-would it be helpful to be able to pick the brain of an academic writer? What about a publisher for the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA)? It would definitely be useful to speak with someone else who's gone through it, and survived, earning that graduate degree.

Now you can, with Bruce J. Carter, PhD, who is all those things as well as, now, author of A Simple Guide to Completing Your Dissertation. This thorough yet easy-to-follow guide encapsulates the process and insights derived from rigorous investigation and the intellectual evolution and growth experienced throughout the research process.

Perfect for not only graduate students but also the faculty advisors and counselors who mentor them, A Simple Guide to Completing Your Dissertation truly is for anyone working the dissertation arena. Its strength is its focus on diversity: every student has a unique experience, including international students and students from underrepresented communities, and Carter speaks to all of them.
