The book covers a range of research that students are most likely to encounter, from experimental to field research, and archival to evaluation research. The Second Edition features updated examples of research across disciplines, new and updated content on qualitative research and conceptual statistics, and a streamlined organization that better aligns with the order of information in a research article., TheSecond Edition offers readers a straightforward presentation of the key components of research and the skills they need to read and evaluate it.

    The book looks to be brand new, better than described! It was shipped quickly, and I'm glad to say it survived being packaged in only a mylar envelope. I would like to see better packaging, but what the hey, it arrived in one piece, so I'll be grateful for that. I would not hesitate to purchase from this Seller again. Thank you, halfpricebooksrecordsmag, for a perfect transaction!

    Item arrived quickly even with Media Mail. Book was packaged securely. The condition was near mint, with an excellent quality and appearance. I would rate this a Fantastic value. Communication was clear, concise and quick, and the seller was very helpful. I would most certainly do business with them again. Give them a look, and buy/bid with confidence. Thank you very much for your time, attention and help. Many Thanks!!! A+A+A+A+A+

    Exactly as described. Well made; arrived well packaged although the box was more than necessary, and a bag would have sufficed Good value.. I think this is another Amazon contributor selling on eBay judging my the packaging. If so, I am again displeased if Jeff Bezos gets even one penny.
