Bitchener - Writing An Applied Linguistics Thesis or Dissertation

Once the research is over, the question of exactly how to write each chapter of a thesis or dissertation remains.

To help students understand what content and structure are appropriate for the different parts of a thesis, John Bitchener presents a range of options, illustrating them with analyses of and commentary on sections from a real Masters thesis in Applied Linguistics.
