Writing Research Papers: A Guide to the Process

Writing Research Papers
This is a clearly written, straight forward description of the process of writing a research paper. I have used various other texts and this provides all the information someone new to the process will need. It takes the reader step-by-step through the process of developing a thesis, hypothesis, reviewing literature and writing the paper. The sample research papers are clearly explained and wonderful examples of successful papers. I will be using this text in my college English class, especially since it provides all the necessary information in an affordable text.

Comprehensive, yet easy to use.
Unlike the weighty tome, "The Heath Handbook," by Mulderig, this is a much simpler, more direct book that will give you quick access to how research papers are written. If you are already an accomplished writer, and just need the details on the research paper process and APA or MLA formats, this is the book for you.

This is the seminal source for Biodynamic farming.
Before Organic farming and gardening, a product of the 1960's revival of awareness of the importance of healthy food and environmental awareness there were already healthy roots in Western Mysticism. (Read also Blavatsky, Besant and Leadbeater) In 1926 Rudolph Steiner delivered a series of lectures to a loyal group of Anthroposophists in Koberwitz, Austria. Reading the text of the lectures is a rare, deep draught of the river of arcane knowledge. In order to absorb it, you must float yourself in it and sink down into it, perhaps to drown. This is not a how-to book. There are some very successful applications of the principles and processes described in the lectures in Australia and North America, which includes the Biodynamic Association in Kimberton, Pennsylvania. Organic gardening is only the first step in reclaiming sustainable and healthy agriculture, and the application of the principles outlined in this book may be an important next step.


All Judgment Fled

Which is more alien-a mad extraterrestrial, or a bureaucrat?
By the author of the Sector General series, this book details the arrival of a mysterious alien starship that takes up a solar orbit near that of Mars. Two Apollo-class Earthships carrying a total of six astronauts are launched to begin an investigation - only to be mindlessly attacked again and again by the varied and strange beings aboard the vessel - until one man figures out what these beings are - and where the crew actually is.

Matters are not improved with Earth's "help", since the gov't is far more concerned with their managing the _perception_ of what is going on than they are in find out what _is_ going on.

All American Wonder
This book is an essential resource for any and all who either are in the process of restoring an old jeep or those who just love old jeeps. The diagrams and photographs are priceless to those who are restoring WW2 jeeps and need an accurate reference to know that the right wire or cable is being put in the right spot. I literally cannot say enough good things about this book.

a Landmark in phenomenological research
Perhaps the most difficult of Rudolf Steiner's written works, "Anthroposophy; a Fragment" rewards a careful study. The work on the 10 senses is articulate such that the reader can begin to explore these modalities directly.

Equally significant to any of the content of this work is the struggled style in which it is written. Steiner never finished writing this work (or at least was never satisfied enough to publish)primarily because of the difficulty in finding a language which could hold this highly particular and objective description of phenomenological research.

The introductions are both helpful, especially Robert Sardello's preface which stands on its own as a significant step towards a new psychology based in a revisioned phenomenology. For those interested in reading an example of a highly individualized articulation of some of the perceptions which Steiner points to in this work, I would recommend reading Robert Sardello's groundbreaking work in spiritual psychology, "Love and the World".

Great Place to Start with Steiner
If you are wondering how to approach the work of Rudolph Steiner, this autobiography is a great place to start. It gives an excellent presentation of the development of Steiner's ideas, including how he was influenced and who he worked with and why. The extensively researched endnotes lead to an endless array of avenues for further study of people and ideas associated with Steiner. Steiner's methodology for his own studies serves as inspiration for anyone who wants to delve more deeply into his work.
