[Diana · Rating 2 out of 5]

It was so hard for me to stay focused all the time and I just couldn't read everything. I leaped from one part to another, searching for something useful to learn. The book is about research, but I didn't find much to use for my own work, since all the details were about England (phone numbers, addresses, etc.). I was really excited when I borrowed it, but now I don't feel the same. I don't usually give up easily, but I didn't have any reason to go on reading it.

This is definitely a book for beginners. It is very 1 2 3 step by step. Toward the end of the chapters it revises what you just read. Not for advanced writers.
