Machi (organizational leadership, U. of La Verne) and McEvoy, a former teacher who worked for the California Department of Education and has taught writing and research at many levels, show graduate students in education and the social sciences the steps of developing and writing a literature review for a research project, thesis, or dissertation: selecting a topic, searching the literature, developing arguments, surveying and critiquing the literature, and writing the review. This edition incorporates key vocabulary words, technology advice, and additional figures, examples, and tips on when and how to write during the early stages, including the use of journals and memoranda. It adds references, virtual tools, and online support to several chapters, as well as a new flowchart, and integrates the ability to complete research, organizational tasks, and bibliographic work using online tools, traditional methods, or a combination.
