The research done for a doctorate degree is very important. It's useful both for the researcher who labored over it for hours and for the committee tasked with assessing whether or not the work merits a doctoral degree. But will others outside of the study benefit from it? The short answer is that many popular scholarly works are based on research done for a doctorate.

 

Tips for converting your dissertation into a book

The bulk of doctoral dissertations end up as peer-reviewed publications. The findings are sometimes released as a book. When thinking about how to disseminate PhD research, you have a wide range of publication alternatives to choose from between these two poles: 
To have your full PhD thesis published as a book, your subject must be of interest to a sizable group of academics. In contrast to a thesis, which poses a question and then seeks to answer it, a book begins with a solution and then explains why it's significant and how it's expanded through time. 
Parts of a doctoral dissertation may be used in a book, but only if the study is continuing and/or collaborative. It's important for a book (which may have several authors) to exceed expectations. 
 

Including a chapter from a PhD thesis in a collection of essays on a larger subject guarantees that the study will mesh well with other studies that have addressed the same or related questions. The requirement to widen the area of PhD-based research is addressed in a properly edited book by working with a team of authors. 
Splitting a PhD thesis into many journal papers spreads the risk by publishing individual chapters in a variety of publications. Unbundling the PhD study may cause the benefits achieved through hedging to be lost. 
what book companies consider when determining whether to sign you; a publisher's job is to bring together writers and readers. This connection is crucial when it comes to sharing findings from a doctoral dissertation. When deciding how to get your work out into the world, it helps to put yourself in the shoes of the publisher. The first three questions a reputable publisher will ask when considering a proposal for a scholarly book are: 

Is the study topic sufficiently wide to pique the attention of our readers (international academics)? Example
How good of quality is it? 
Can the book be improved by incorporating criticisms from reviewers and other industry professionals? 
Putting in a bid for a book
Contacting an acquisitions/commissioning editor early on in the PhD process or immediately thereafter might be helpful. It is also helpful at this time to talk to your superiors and coworkers. The next logical step is to send in a book proposal for the publisher to examine, which is usually followed by a round of peer reviews. Books at the level of research typically form part of an established series, and familiarity with the previous entries in that series may help with the development of a book proposal. 
Getting your book's final draft ready for publication 
The editorial board at the publishing house would have to offer its stamp of approval before a book deal would be released. The author may complete a comprehensive paper based on their PhD research after they get feedback from the publisher and reviewers. Even while the final steps in preparing a manuscript for publishing may vary from book to book, there are several universally important factors to keep in mind. Keep your target demographic in mind at all times.

• A thesis is intended for reviewers, whereas a book is aimed at the academic community at large. Examiner-specific content (such as a literature review or explanation of technique) should be eliminated or significantly revised. 
• Examiners will make their way through any style of writing, but readers won't. Keeping readers interested and involved will need a lot of rewriting. 
• Reassess the situation. Consider the book's overarching story and be open to altering the framework if necessary; doing so may be very freeing. 
Don't waste people's time. The nature of theses requires a lot of repetition, so cut it off when you can. Bear in mind the predetermined word count. 
•Contextualize. If your study has a restricted focus, it might benefit from some international or interdisciplinary perspective, especially in the introduction and ending chapters.
