The literature review is a compulsory part of research and,
increasingly, may form the whole of a student research project. This
highly accessible book guides students through the production of
either a traditional or a systematic literature review, clearly
explaining the difference between the two types of review, the
advantages and disadvantages of both, and the skills needed. It gives
practical advice on reading and organising relevant literature and
critically assessing the reviewed field. Contents include: using
libraries and the internet note making presentation critical
analysis referencing, plagiarism and copyright. This book will be
relevant to students from any discipline. It includes contributions
from two lecturers who have many years experience of teaching research
methods and the supervision of postgraduate research dissertations and
a librarian, each offering expert advice on either the creation and
assessment of literature reviews or the process of searching for
information. The book also highlights the increasing importance for
many disciplines of the systematic review methodology and discusses
some of the specific challenges which it brings. Jill K. Jesson has
worked with multi-disciplinary research teams within the Aston School
of Pharmacy, Aston Business School and with M-E-L Research, an
independent public services research consultancy. She has now left
Aston University and is working as a Consultant. Lydia Matheson is
an Information Specialist working for Library & Information Services
at Aston University. Fiona M. Lacey is an academic pharmacist, a
member of the pharmacy practice teaching group in the School of
Pharmacy, and Associate Dean in the School of Life and Health Sciences
at Aston.
