1 out of 5 stars

Nothing you did already know February 21, 2008
This book is a general help with literature reviews. However, it is not anything special. It covers general material and offers a general approach and doesn't do anything SUPER, just does it MEDIOCRE. br /Buy it if you have or need one more book to read.

4 out of 5 stars

Good especially for grad students October 6, 2007
I wish I'd read this book when I was starting my doctoral program. It is easy to read, almost too simplistic in some spots. Overall helpful and logical. Recommend for doctoral students.

It is elegance itself.br /br /Brava, Dr. Garrard!
