Data Collection and Analysis by Roger Sapsford

In simple and nontechnical terms Data Collection and Analysis explains and illustrates the range of techniques and approaches used in social research projects. This comprehensive textbook covers both quantitative and qualitative approaches to data collection and analysis in social research, considering the structure and logic of research projects and the ethics and politics of research. A wide range of academic and applied research studies illustrate the text and a set of exercises runs throughout the book to aid the reader in understanding and planning research projects.

`An ideal and thought-provoking text for researchers in the social sciencesThe chapters are interspersed with activity sessions where readers are invited to resolve certain issues which are then discussed in the text. The book is well referenced throughout′ - Physiotherapy Journal
