Abstract
Publishing your work is the key way in which you can insert it into the slipstream of academic ideas, and so avoid your thesis becoming just ‘shelf-bending’ research, sitting in your university library and slowly bending a shelf over the years. The main route is to submit papers to professional journals. More rarely you can reshape your whole thesis into book form and get it accepted by a publisher as a monograph. Neither form of publication is quick or straightforward. They can protract your end-game long past the formal date at which your title metamorphoses into Dr.
