Doing a successful research project : using qualitative or quantitative methods

"Doing a Successful Research Project" is a realistic, unceasingly user-friendly guide on how to conduct a research project that talks at the student's level; akin to having a tutor permanently at one's side.

It offers an accessible, even-handed introduction to carrying out research methods for undergraduate and postgraduate students conducting a research project for the first time.

The research process - from planning, through design and implementation, to completion - is described simply and succinctly, with the emphasis throughout on good planning.

The book provides students with the self-discipline and the confidence to carry out their own research project, as well as enabling them to assess for themselves the advantages and disadvantages of the differing strategies available.
