Reviews

Margaret Merga's PhD Thesis by Publication in Social Science Research is an accessible guide for research students exploring this pathway. In addition to highlighting the many benefits of undertaking this approach, Margaret provides practical advice on navigating university policy and supervisory dynamics. What I loved most in these discussions was her open and candid approach which worked to demystify the various complexities involved. The excellent guidance and illustrative examples for choosing journals, understanding publication impact, and responding to reviewer feedback (or not!), make this book an essential companion for research students! -- Barbara Zupan
