  <abstract>"Demystifying and charting a path from concept to completion, Destination Dissertation has helped thousands of doctoral students emerge on the other side of their dissertation as successful researchers. The third edition of this groundbreaking guidebook supplements the core 29 steps of the dissertation with up-to-date discussions of citation management and the pros and cons of artificial intelligence in the research world. A new final chapter looks beyond the dissertation to springboard researchers into future publishing and career opportunities"--</abstract>
