Undergrad Paper Life Saver

I am finally finishing my undergrad work and have to write a Final Senior project. I didn't know where to start. This book saved my sanity. It's step by step approach and useful illustrations make writing a paper a breeze. If you're not sure how to conduct research or where to start this is the book for you. I highly recommend it.

Specially for non-technical research

I was looking for a 'manual' how to write a technical research paper. For example how to include graphs and tables in the text and statistical information as well as calculations made etc. I couldn't find that in this book. It does give you a good view of how to write a research paper if you are studieing phsychology, history or something like that. It is very clear written though and it is a good book to start with.
