Here are a few questions to think about to give you an idea of what Özgür Publishing is looking for:
· Does your book idea fit within the scope of Free Press?
· Is there a clear demand for your book from an academic audience, or what about your book idea that specific readers might want to read?
· Is the concept of your book broad enough to attract readers?
· What makes you the best person to write this book? What is your research background that makes you an expert?
Please contact us if you think your book idea can successfully answer these questions.
Whether you're looking to turn your Ph.D. thesis into a book, have an idea for a handbook or a scholarly reference book, or are writing a book for a professional audience, we would love to hear from you.
Turn your PhD thesis into a book
The following points should be taken into consideration when converting theses into books.
1) It is important that you identify short, attention-grabbing title suggestions that are appropriate to the content of your book.
2) It is recommended to use a standard system (APA, Chicago, ISNAD, MLA, etc.) for citation and referencing.
3) It is preferred that publications made after the completion of the thesis are taken into consideration when the thesis is published as a book.
4) The book should be preferred if theses used are published as a book.
5) Using expressions such as "author" instead of "our author" in citation expressions is recommended.
6) Phrases such as "in the thesis," "in our thesis," "in our thesis," and "in our thesis" referring to the thesis version of the work should be removed or replaced."
7) In the preface, an ethical statement should be made: "This book is based on our doctoral dissertation titled ..., which we did in ... on ...".
8) Unnecessary information in footnotes should be eliminated. Necessary quotations/information should be included in the text.
9) In the introduction and chapter titles, not only "Introduction" but also "Introduction: Methodological Framework," Chapter Two: Historical Perspective" should be used.
10) The detailed titling required by the thesis format should be simplified to make it more fluent and organized. It is recommended that the sub-headings in the text and table of contents be eliminated.
