rdkmco said It's a college class book. This rating is for the overall purchase. I cannot give this a low rating nor a high rating. It is a college classroom book and necessary for the material.

Wow--your new methods text just landed here today, and I've been reading in it off and on all afternoon. Really a remarkable, big-time accomplishment: a thorough, comprehensive, fair-minded, theoretically informed methods text that is--I can't believe I'm writing this--actually interesting and engaging!

Again, really great stuff--and I've already emailed my young colleague who teaches methods here to tell her she must adopt it!

This is a text that both professors and students will appreciate: professors for its comprehensive and balanced coverage of the material; students for its portrayal of research methods as interesting, exciting, and most importantly, relevant.
