Designing Social Research by Norman Blaikie
This accessible text presents a comprehensive and integrated scheme for preparing research designs and proposals.‘A masterclass in the logic of anticipation when designing social researchBlaikie and Priest explain the choices to be made – and, oh so important, why those decisions need thoughtful planning in advance. I can’t recommend it enough.’
Rosalind Edwards, University of Southampton, Co-director of the ESRC National Centre for Research Methods
‘This book reviews the key principles of research design and strategy in ways that blend theoretical sophistication with practical strategic advice: a winning formula. If you produce your research design using this book, and if you really engage with the key issues that Blaikie and Priest write so authoritatively about, you can’t go wrong.’
Jennifer Mason, University of Manchester
