Recently, the Italian intellectual umberto eco passed away-forgive me for not finding a better definition of ecology. He possessed a vast store of knowledge. A novelist? He is also a famous scholar. Symbolist? He also studied aesthetics, ethics and so on. His doctoral thesis is about the Christian theologian Thomas Aquinas. The author of The Name of the Rose? He also has many great books: Walking with Salmon, Beautiful History, Minerva Matchbox … serious scholars and writers? He also wrote many interesting articles and published children's books.

It must be a good idea to put some Eco books on the shelf. In other words, if you open Eco's book, you may not understand it. But the book I want to introduce is Eco's work, and you can certainly understand it. Moreover, if you are a student and want to write a graduation thesis, then I strongly recommend you to read this book well, because it is very practical.

This book is called Come si fa una tesi di laurea, and it is about how English translators write papers and how Chinese translators write college students' graduation papers. At first glance, it looks inconspicuous and even a little fake, but in fact, this is a famous scholar who taught you how to do research. Apotheker not only frankly introduced his various experiences in doing research, but also wrote it with special interest, teasing it from time to time, so that you can read it completely.

In addition, although this book is mainly aimed at undergraduate thesis, graduate students and junior doctors can gain a lot from reading it. We studied this book together in a group meeting of a research group last semester. These are some of my reading notes.
