The first edition of this book was published 20 years ago and I wish I had seen it then. It is only over the last 10 years or so that I have actively become more interested and this book would have certainly stimulated my interest much sooner.
If you are undertaking a research activity it is a book that helps you each step of the way. A very understandable and enjoyable publication.
