References for PhD

Avatar for mhmd

Hi,

I want to get a PhD in management.

Is there any problem if I use books as references in my proposal and finally in my thesis more than academic articles?

Would there be a difference if the books I use are of academic nature (like those books that consists of several research papers sharing a similar theme) compared to books that are based on research, but are more like self help books or books that suggests new types of thinking?

Thanks.

Bump?

Shouldn't be an issue to be honest. As long as it is not Wikipedia or something like that for example I don't see an issue.
