Literature Reviews
Introduction
A literature review is different from a review of the literature. When looking for a topic or investigating a problem, you must conduct a literature review to see what has been done in the past on the topic or problem under investigation. After the problem has been established, you must conduct a review of the literature. A review of the literature involves deeply reading and researching the article (literature) for elements that define parts of the review of the literature (the methodology and design). Review of the literature is diving deeply into literature to make the logical connection of the parts of the literature to the problem under investigation.
