Just released (open-access): The Art of Thesis Writing: From Understanding Research to Writing Success (2nd ed.)
716 pages · 218 figures · 93 tables
This is not another “how-to” guide—it’s a critical, interdisciplinary compendium exploring the shared foundations of academic writing across the humanities, social sciences, and STEM.
It dives into ontology, epistemology, reasoning, structure, and layout—while unpacking the fuzzy terminology that clutters academic discourse (“paradigms,” “qualitative research,” “inductive method”… ).
Designed as a course reader, seminar companion, or method reference
From reflective philosophy to formatting hacks
For students and supervisors tired of vague advice
Features a full section on AI in academic writing: language models, hallucinations, skill erosion & detection myths—critically unpacked.
