How to Write a Phenomenological Dissertation

Overall, I feel this is possibly the best work I have seen on this type of a dissertation. It is clear and concise as well as complete in mechanics.
– Michael E. Cox
It seems to make writing a phenomenological study more accessible by offering pathways to students.
– Dr. Akin Taiwo
It is well-informed, driven by experience and authoritatively written and yet leaves room for others to write their own. It is quite a feat.
– Maurice Apprey
While this book conforms with others in the domain of phenomenological research is it superior in many respects; chiefly the author′s sound knowledge transfer of philosophy to methods; the fit between conceptual basic assumptions and object of research study; and clarity without sacrificing complexity. – Maurice Apprey
The key strengths are the attempt to provide a systematic understanding of the process from A to Z with a specific focus on phenomenology. This text will be useful and versatile for student locked in to phenomenology.
– Raymond Blanton
The research methodology reflects my academic training and interests. – Dr Mike Guerra
A book on research methods on phenomenology is scarce, and this book has successfully demonstrated what phenomenological research should do and how to connect to other disciplines for a deeper understanding of causal relationships in cities and human activities. – Dr Quazi Zaman
Absolutely excellent text for introducing Phenomenology to students.
There are some editorial issues in sections on intentionality (information in one chapter does not match another). And a spacing issue on one page making it difficult to follow the logic. If you contact me I would be happy to provide details but don′t have the book in front of me at the moment.
It would also be helpful to know if the book is aimed at PhD or Masters level dissertations as this is not clear.
This is added to our reading list - we do not provide a recommended list as students in Education draw from such a wide range of texts. I have recommended it to colleagues supervising Phenomenological dissertations. – Ms Ann Kendrick
