Colleagues, doctoral students and masters students alike will find something of interest here--whether it be used as a reminder of terminology, or a quick introduction to a new field. With new material on surveys, secondary data, and digital research as well as a fully integrated supporting digital research, this new edition is still <em>the</em> clear and accessible overview of the practicalities of doing research in the ′real world.′ </p>--Fiona Harris (9/7/2017 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>This book is a very user-friendly and theoretically robust guide that will prove invaluable to researchers and students alike. I particularly like the breadth and depth with which all dimensions of the research process are addressed and explained.
