« Graduate students who turn in exceptional literature reviews are recognized as excellent critical thinkers, as well as masters of academic argumentation, research writing and writing academic papers. But literature searches and composing the review itself can be intimidating and frustrating. The six-step process pioneered by this book has made the task flowing and seamless for masters and doctoral candidates in Education and related fields. This updated third edition features a wealth of all-new content including: A flowchart that graphically illustrates Machi and McEvoy's process; reflective Oversight boxes in each chapter that prompt readers to direct metacognitive activities; links to online guides and resources; expanded examples illustrating theoretical concepts; when you apply this system to your next literature review the work will be intuitive and enjoyable for you, and the results will impress your teachers and fellow researchers. »--
