Riassunto

Arthur Asa Berger employs his signature style - a practical focus, the use of numerous examples, a step-by-step approach, and humor - in his latest book, Media and Communication Research Methods. Combining both qualitative and quantitative research methods, this introductory text covers the topics thoroughly and is clearly written and fun-to-read. This book is ideal for beginning research students both at the graduate and undergraduate level because it is clear, concise, and accompanied by many detailed examples.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

“Berger succeeds in describing this subject – which students often consider ‘boring stuff’ – in an original, interesting and sometimes humorous way. His personal style makes this book easy to read. Berger writes as if he is standing in front of a class, clearly explaining complex material, while telling lots of anecdotes and giving clarifying examples.” (Communications: The European Journal of Communication Research 2003-09-15)
