Study SkillsA Student Survival Guide
What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

PLATINUM WINNER - 2006 MarCom Creative Awards
Postgraduate students require a variety of skills in addition to the specialist knowledge of their area of research, including organisation, time management, preparation and presentation of a seminar, and writing a thesis and a research paper. This outstanding title provides PhD and MSc students with advice on key issues relating to the organisation and presentation of their research.
- Helps students to deal with an increasingly competitive marketplace after completing their studies
- Clearly written and illustrated by professional lecturers
- Covers the skills that the Research Councils expect students to develop during their doctoral training
- Features handy quick tips, checklists and key ‘remember’ points so that students can dip into it in any order throughout their research or read in stages as their work develops
This easy-to-use guide on study skills is also of practical value to new supervisors wanting to ensure their students are equipped with the transferable skills needed to take them through their PhD and beyond.
From the reviews:
“I am left with just one question: why should readers pick this manual as opposed to others?... One answer is timing: Due to this book’s newness, its lists of websites and the like for additional information will prove highly reliable... Second, the fact that it was written by several people, each one an expert in the area he or she discusses... Yet the ultimate answer... rests with the book’s conciseness, its coverage of so much advice on so many (related) subjects...” IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATIONS, March 2006
