3.0 out of 5 stars A thorough clearly written, easy to follow guide to research, 19 Feb 2002
By A Customer
This book covers most of the important aspects that need to be considered when undertaking various forms of research. It is very useful in the modern world as it covers the use of the internet as well as other computer media. Topics are logically broken down into their component parts and then explained in easy to understand language . Throughout the book practical advice is given about how to overcome various problems and in addition, alternative sources of advice and information are also provided. This book is worth every penny spent because of time saved in looking a various sources for answers or even trying to translate a tutors answers into plain english.
