Real World Research: A Resource for Social Scientists and Practitioner-Researchers

From Book News, Inc.
Practitioners and professionals working with people (e.g. in education, health, and the social services, as well as in industry) are not infrequently called on to become involved in studies outside the laboratory, often in complex, messy, poorly controlled situations. The emphasis here is on achieving rigor and trustworthiness in such research through systematic procedures appropriate to the task, e.g. multi-method case study alongside field experimentation and the survey. Includes coverage of qualitative and quantitative approaches. Paper edition (17689-6), $24.95. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
