Introducing a Book:
How to Finish Your Dissertation in Six Months,Even if You Don't Know What to Write Author: Scott Rank M. S. Thirumalai, Ph.D.
Indian M.Phil. and Ph.D. research scholars will find this short book very encouraging. The author Scott Rank reports how he managed to overcome his “crippling writer’s block” to achieve the skill and comfort to write everyday 500 to 1000 words of his dissertation. Initial hesitation, reluctance, and inferiority complex all should be overcome with confidence. But this confidence should result in real progress of writing the dissertation. For this the author Scott Rank shares his own experience with us in a language easy to follow, understand and practice. The author had published several books in Kindle Direct Publishing already. But when it came to writing the first draft of his dissertation, “nothing would come out.” He had already collected plenty of data for his Ph.D. in history. Initially he could write only one paragraph per hour. Unlike most of our Indian students and faculty members, Scott Rank seems to have had usually no difficulty in listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. However, when it came to writing the dissertation, a long report usually with several chapters, his speed was slow, indeed. It is all some sort of paralysis, and most Ph.D. scholars suffered from it initially. Scott Rank had the mental image of how his advisors would look at his first draft of his dissertation: He saw them scrutinizing his chapter critically as usual, “recommending a change here, a deletion there or even calling my entire first chapter into question.” M. S. Thirumalai, Ph.D.
