Life saver! 25 April 2000

By Clay Keller - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

I am a senior BSN student in West Texas. We have been studying the research process as it applies to the nursing profession. Our text book we used was limited in explanation. I found Burns & Grove to be a life saver when preparing for exams and assignments. Throughout my research course I used several nursing research books as a reference book. None compared to Burns & Grove. It has explanations of the research process, theories, and statistics. You name it, it has it all. I highly recommend this book to all BSN students or anyone interested in nursing research. My only wish is this would have been the assigned text book for my class! This is one nursing book I definitely will be purchasing.

somewhat useful... 9 Jan 2007

By Sarah B. Koenigseker - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

In my grad level Nursing Research class, this book was helpful. However, I am doing qualitative research for my master's project and this book was quite lacking in this area. I would suggest if you're doing qualitative, find a different book.

A "know why" and know "how to" conduct research 10 Nov 2006

By Tammie L. Calabrese - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover

This text is required for my doctoral level quantitative research course.

I have been busy actively learning (actual data analysis & critique). For the first time I feel that research can become a reality. It's too bad this text did not cross my path 10 years ago as the beginning point for previous research courses. The text is not a difficult read. The excerpts from actual research and visuals keep the readers attention. I have not utilized the Evolve web site. At least 4 research texts are on my bookshelf, but this text pulls it all together. If I desire to dig deeper the references are there.
