Description
Book Introduction
A must-read for anyone who needs to write essays.
A must-read for anyone struggling to write a good thesis.
What is a thesis and why is it written?
A thesis is a representative form of academic writing.
You write a thesis to receive a degree and publish your research results in an academic journal.
All researchers in academia write papers and, through them, contribute to the academic community (and society).
There are many books out there that guide you through the process and techniques of writing a paper, but it can be difficult to easily understand what makes a good paper and what preparations are necessary.
How can I write a good paper?
Professor Yongchan Kim of Yonsei University's book, "Writing a Paper: A Conversational Paper," is a book that answers these questions.
This book is a compilation of advice the author has repeatedly given over many years of guiding dissertations.
In this book, the author states that a paper is a tool for academic conversation and a forum for conversation itself.
To have these conversations, the authors of the paper emphasize that finding good questions requires having the courage to challenge authority and a curiosity about the ordinary.
It also contains meticulous advice on everything from the composition of the paper to the details.
These contents provide practical help to those who are at a loss while writing a thesis by asking fundamental questions about the thesis.
This book not only provides technical guidance on how to write a paper, but also explains what constitutes a good paper and how to write one. It is useful not only for those preparing master's and doctoral dissertations, but also for researchers preparing papers to be submitted to academic journals.
This will be helpful to anyone preparing a logical and academic essay (a so-called dissertation) or a "logical and evidence-based essay" (a piece of writing that requires logical reasoning, regardless of whether it is in the humanities or social sciences or the natural sciences).
