"This book provides over and above that to avail important tips about academic writing, defending the proposal, research management and managing relationships. It is a book about research proposal writing, but beyond that a manual for acquiring valuable research skills for application beyond the development process and defence of a doctoral proposal.
The international students community and their supporters will find this book an important resource in the researcher development process." -- Dr Loice Natukunda, Lecturer in Research Methods, Lincoln International Business School, UK
"It will be clear to anyone reading this book that Peters awareness of the challenges for students, especially international students, undertaking doctoral work is very informed by his career experiences and his book is carefully written to be as concise, clear, helpful, and user-friendly as possible to its potential audience.
In sum, if you are an international doctoral candidate who wants to write a solid proposal and, in the process, greatly increase your chances of being accepted onto a doctoral programme, you would be very well advised to read and digest Peters book!" -- Dr Andrew Hambler, Associate Professor, Human Resource Management and Employment Law, Birmingham City Business School, UK
