This book is a great place to start for anyone who wishes to carry out a research project. Taking a practical and down-to-earth view of research, the author covers all aspects of quantitative and qualitative research, with clearly laid-out examples and illustrations. This book is an excellent resource for research students at any level, and contains many references for their future work. Very readable: highly recommended. (First year PhD research student)

I purchased this book prior to completing my first ever research project for my Masters course. It has been extremely helpful to me throughout my project and it is written using an informal yet engaging style. After reading the first few pages I was instantly impressed- my fears in relation the daunting research I was about to embark on were alleviated! I would recommend this to anyone who is new to research and requires a book that clearly defines all the important areas for consideration, in a very accessible format.
