    Hi,

    I am in final year arts in NUIG and I have to do a thesis for geography. I want to do a thesis about smoking. I have decided to talk about nicotine addiction, dependence, smoking cessation and somehow bring the new e-cigarettes into it but now I cant come up with a specific thesis question/statement.

    It was suggested to me to write about perceptions amongst smokers as to which alternatives (patches, e-cigs, going 'cold turkey', hypnosis, etc) work?

    I am still not sure any suggestions would be welcome please ! :o]

    You might get more replies posting this in the Giving Up Smoking forum, not a smoker myself so can't help!

    I'm curious... how is this a geography thesis?

    Is it something like
    "In England it's illegal to sell e-cigs to under 18s and in Ireland it's legal, and it turns out that there are now more underage cigarette smokers in England..."?

    Everything is relevant in Geography.

    You might pop up to the Academic Writing Centre on the 2nd floor of the library. They offer free one-on-one tutorials to work on any aspect of your writing.

    Talk to your intended supervisor about it. They're best placed to help you hammer out a workable proposal.
