Authoring for a PHD
Question: Describe about How Authoring for a PHD? Answer: Reading for dissertation is more challenging than writing the dissertation itself. The statement draws a picture of the most inherent concept and theory in the process to write a dissertation and proceed in the right direction. Reading for the dissertation is like a marathon and not a sprint (Buglear, 2004) and therefore, the process of reading should be continuous, energetic and full or willingness to learn and enrich the knowledge bank for writing purposes. Simply reading the books, journals, articles or any piece of related information would not refine our writing skills but in addition to simple reading, there have to elements of crucially analyzing the readings, prioritizing the read texts, choosing the most appropriate texts for writing and dwelling deeper into the contextual aspects of reading. It is so easy to feel that we are reading for the purpose of writing but reading some book wont code up all the data, compile plethora of sources or help in writing up a commendable literature review (Dunleavy, 2003). Reading becomes a blend of exploring and researching for the dissertation topic. Deeply analyzing different concept from altogether different perspectives are the keys for efficient reading for the purpose of dissertation writing. Foundation of a well-researched dissertation lies over in depth reading skills. To sum up, reading to write a dissertation is like preparing hard for a lighter job as it amalgamates the concepts of analysis, critical thinking, reading between the lines and think out of the box as a result.
