5.0 out of 5 stars Simply a great resource and reference
Reviewed in the United States on 26 July 2013

The author brilliantly lays out the history and framework of social research. Multiple dimensions of social research methods are covered in this text, primarily the methodology behind qualitative and quantitative approaches. Also covered are topics on data measurement, theory, sampling, the literature review, and research report writing. Understanding and making sense of the material is made easier if the reader has statistical knowledge. This book is a spectacular resource and will be staying on my shelf for future reference even when I am out of graduate school (Masters in Public Administration student).

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good quality book

Very good quality book. I had an e-book version with a two-year access only (I took the class back in 2012) but I still use it on occasion as a reference book on all things research-related. When my access lapsed I decided to invest in a hard copy version. It arrived a bit early, brand new or incredibly mint condition, no complaints at all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not exactly right.

Turns out this is the International version of the book I was supposed to get. It doesn't exactly match the text I was supposed to get. Correct words, but the pages are slightly different. But hey, it was $100 cheaper and it's still got the info.
