What Is a Literature Review?
A critical, well organised synthesis of the research, built to lead straight to your gap and questions.
A literature review is a critical summary and synthesis of the existing research on a topic. It shows what is already known, where scholars agree or disagree, and where the gaps are that your own study will address. It is a core part of most dissertations, theses and research papers, and is often needed as a standalone piece.
A strong review does far more than list studies. It groups sources by theme, compares their methods and findings, weighs their quality, and builds an argument that leads naturally to your research question. Swift Academic Services writes reviews that do exactly that, using only real sources, referenced correctly and checked for originality.
In short
