Amanda,

You should be able to look up this dissertation in Dissertation
Abstracts International. It would help if you knew the approximate date
it was written. Once you have the order number, you can often borrow
it from UMI (Universitry Microfilms). Sometimes the thesis can't
be borrowed and you may have to purchase it. I would have a chat
with the interlibrary loan officer at your local library and they should be
able to help you. Sometimes you can even get hold of a xerox copy
to borrow rather than a microfilm, which is always nice!!
Good luck,
