To all research students (Phd, Masters and Final Year
Project):
You might experience this situation when citing a reference
for your journal/ dissertation/ thesis/ report. For sources that you have not
actually seen but which are referred to in another work, list the secondary
source in the Reference List. In-text, name the original work and give a
citation for the secondary source.
For example, if Bodwin's work is cited in a book written by
Richard and you did not read Bodwin's original work, list the source you did
read (in this case the Richard reference) in the Reference List.
In-text write:
Bodwin (as cited in Richard, 2008) defined ...
In Reference List write:
Richard, H. (2008). Project and Construction Management.
(4th ed.). Auckland , New Zealand : Addison Wesley
Longman.
Hope this help
