'This is a book Umberto Eco published for his students in which he offered useful advice on all the steps involved in researching and writing a thesis - from choosing a topic to organizing a work schedule to writing the final draft. Practical advice is offered and larger questions about the value of the thesis-writing exercise are discussed. The book reads like a novel rather than a writing manual, and it is opinionated.' - excerpted from flapped page.
