520			_a"Research is a scientific problem-solving process. It is driven by passion, curiosity, necessity or hunger for knowledge. It is combined with the scientific procedures of data gathering, probabilistic thinking and a theoretical framework. Be they in arts, humanities, social or natural sciences, all researches entail two main processes: the research process and the writing process. It requires some methods of collection and processing of data with the end goal of answering a question or solving a problem. Research and thesis writing is not simply writing from readings. It is writing using authoritative sources and objective data gathered from empirical inquiry. It is thus a process guided by theoretical, conceptual and/ or operational frameworks, with the ultimate objective to contribute to the body of knowledge in the field or area of study. This book addresses the struggle of students in research and thesis writing. It aims to make research the very heart of one's academic or professional career. As an attempt to cover the essentials of research across disciplines and thesis writing." -- Preface
