Thesis Research - Reference

July 22, 2009
by Jason Cross

This content is a running list of elements used in my continuing investigation in developing my Thesis; a Collection of the Books, Articles, Websites, and other information being used in my research. While not all of the listed resources will be used within my final thesis proposal, this list contains all of the elements I have investigated. I have developed this as a resource for myself to help in defining the general scope of my investigations.
