Thesis update: Chapter 1 draft complete

It took eight days to write the first draft of chapter 1 of my thesis, working about two or three hours every night and a few extra hours on weekend afternoons, when my two-year-old is asleep.

You can read the draft chapter here. It's 16 double-spaced pages long, including footnotes, but the formatting is not complete -- the ALM thesis guide explains a lot of formatting requirements which I frankly don't have time to fully incorporate right now, and I believe might prove distracting for my thesis director.

Next step: Start work on chapter 2 (methodology) while my thesis director goes over chapter 1.
