Focused around the actual questions that students ask, this guide provides students with all the know-how needed to do a successful research project.
If you are a Masters or a PhD student conducting a systematic review for your dissertation or thesis, then this is the book for you! Written by an expert team of authors with years of experience in conducting systematic reviews and supervising students doing systematic reviews, the book provides a roadmap to guide you through the process.



The book addresses the following questions:


- What′s the best way to manage my review?


- How do I formulate an appropriate review question?


- How do I develop my search strategy?


- How do I get started on data extraction?


- How do I assess the quality of the studies I′m using?


- How can I analyse and synthesise my data?


- How should I write up the discussion and conclusion sections of my dissertation or thesis?


- Where should I publish my data?





Throughout the book, the authors make extensive use of questions posed by real students when carrying out reviews to help you through some of the challenges you may face. Like a team of supervisors in your pocket, this book will provide you with the tips and tools for a successful dissertation.
