This text seems to integrate the larger "so what" question, which I am currently doing through a patchwork of articles and real-life examples. Having all of this material (scientific method, research questions, data collection, descriptive stats, qualitative approaches, etc) all in on one place, this book is a major improvement on what I am now using. -- H. Howell Williams
The research and information were blended in together. Students can easily adapt or adjust their research idea and research process accordingly.  -- Mehmet Soyer
