'In all, this is an amusing and informative book that will enlighten prospectives PhD students, help lift the flagging spirits of those already in the thick of the process, and bring back memories to those who have already passed this way. It is also a useful book for PhD supervisors - if only to remind them of how their students may be feeling!' Physiotherapy

Présentation de l'éditeur

Doctors and other health professionals are increasingly drawn towards research in the course of their training, often with little guidance on the skills, techniques and personal qualities required of a medical research worker. This short and helpful book has been written by three authors with long experience of performing and evaluating research in medicine. It provides essential advice for the beginner, covering in a practical and accessible fashion all the steps involved from choosing a research project to preparing and submitting a thesis. Now in its second edition, many important revisions have been made including updates on the use of computers, career implications, degree structures and ethical issues in human and animal experimentation. The illustrations by David Langdon provide a wry commentary on the ups and downs of life in research.
