I am using this book for a Public Health course for my PhD program. It has been helpful for class as well as for understanding the use of literature reviews.

By Stephanie J. Cummings

The reason I purchased this text was because it was required for a course I am taking. I have found the contents to be most helpful as I am developing strategies and habits to keep articles and information organized. I will no doubt continue to return to this as a resource even after I complete my work in the PhD Program.
