Recensioner i media

“Doctoral Degree Programs in Law is an important introduction in understanding the structures of the law doctorate, which might be beneficial for prospective and current law doctoral candidates, their law school research directors and examiners. More fittingly, the text is a useful primer for legal education researchers interested in conducting projects, with the aim of bettering doctoral degrees. Chiefly, Mwenda’s book demonstrates that researching the law doctorate is accomplishable.” (Aysha Mazhar, The Law Teacher, May 27,2022)
