Riassunto:

With more than 25 years on the market, Making Sense in the Social Sciences: A Student's Guide to Research and Writing is entering its fifth edition. This volume is intended for undergraduate students in any social sciences course with a research and writing component. Its likeliest home will be in first-year courses; however, it is also suitable for students at the second- and third-year level.

Revisions to the fifth edition Making Sense in the Social Sciences: A Student's Guide to Research and Writing include updated information on research design and developing a thesis statement, and enhanced coverage of developments in technology-based research. This edition will feature a brand new chapter, 'Presenting Your Work', which offers information on making the most of visual aids and responding to questions. References, dates, and examples have also been updated throughout the text. Finally, the new edition features a mini-index, outlining the most common research and writing issues, on the inside front cover for quick and easy reference.
