Reviews

As a current doctoral student, How to Do a Dissertation in Record Time Using Government Data: A Primer has been helpful in de-mystifying the dissertation process by providing a thorough yet accessible roadmap from finding a problem to finalizing the report. Chapter 4's '10 Commonsense Questions' are a particular useful set of guides that I plan to post prominently on my office wall. --Rich Vath, director of Research and Advancement, University of Louisiana System
