Publisher Description The literature review is a compulsory part of research and, increasingly, may form the whole of a student research project.

It gives practical advice on reading and organising relevant literature and critically assessing the reviewed field.

The book also highlights the increasing importance for many disciplines of the systematic review methodology and discusses some of the specific challenges which it brings. Jill K.
