-From Dissertation to Book-
\nWorkshop with Prof. Thongchai Winichakul and Prof. Chie Ikeya<\/p>\n
If you have finished your Ph.D. you are probably thinking of turning
\nyour dissertation into a book. But writing a doctoral dissertation and
\nwriting a publishable book are not the same. Revising the dissertation
\nis a shift from writing for a narraow audience (a commitee) to a broader
\nscholarly audience. This revision will may require major adjustments.
\nAlthough there is no single rule that can guide a researcher in the
\nprocess of getting publishable book out of your dissertation, it is very
\nhelpful to hear from the scholars who have successfully done this.<\/p>\n
Drawing on years of experience as a published scholar, two Visiting
\nScholars at CSEAS, Professor Thongchai Winichakul and Professor Chie
\nIkeya, will offer guidance on how to turn a doctoral dissertation into a
\nbook.<\/p>\n
The workshop will be an informal occasion; the two professors will give
\nadvise and answer questions from the audience.<\/p>\n
Anyone is welcome. No need to make a reservation.<\/p>\n
