Riassunto:

`Valuable advice to the beginning (and the not so experienced) social researcher. It represents a valuable resource for those who are writing research proposals, for those at the start of their research projects, and also for those who are further along the research line′ - Sociological Research Online

The social science researcher today needs to understand the logic of both the quantitative and qualitative approaches to empirical research. This book provides comprehensive coverage of both, set within a pragmatic view of research. It is an ideal starting point for all students and researchers in the social sciences, where you can learn about:

· developing a model for empirical research

· the logic of quantitative research - design, data collection, data analysis

· the logic of qualitative research - design, data collection, data analysis

· mixing the methods, evaluation and research writing
