Kate L. Turabian (1893-1987) was the graduate-school dissertation secretary at the University of Chicago from 1930 to 1958. She is also the author of Student's Guide for Writing College Papers, also published by the University of Chicago Press.
"Turabian's A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and
Dissertations continues a tradition of providing one of the best
interpretations of The Chicago Manual of Style for higher education
students and researchers in this ninth edition. The writing style
is clear and easy to read, with examples illustrating proper
formatting of items."--Cynthia Goode "American Reference Books
Annual"
"Without doubt, for anyone interested in learning about
research--what it is, where one goes to pursue it, how to do it,
what it entails and means, why it is important (now more so than
ever before)--A Manual for Writers of Research Papers, Theses, and
Dissertations: Chicago Style for Students and Researchers is the
place to begin. It will likely show people new to the field a way
forward and offer experienced researchers the means to test
established modes of operation. This book will not fail you, today
or tomorrow, at home or in the library. Look for it at a bookstore
near you or online."--Thomas R. Claire "Publishing Research
Quarterly"
