Written by an expert team of authors with years of experience in conducting systematic reviews and supervising students doing systematic reviews, the book provides a roadmap to guide students through the process.
Throughout the book, the authors make extensive use of questions posed by real students when carrying out reviews to help readers through some of the challenges they may face. Like a team of supervisors in their pocket, this book will provide students with the tips and tools for a successful dissertation.
