More About This Title Starting Research: An Introduction to Academic Research and Dissertation Writing

English

By placing the emphasis on the common ground between physical and social research, this book encompasses the methods available to any student undertaking research for the first time. It is a practical text that provides a coherent theoretical basis for the construction of research planning. The descriptive text shows the researcher how to deal with non-quantitative data, written in a comprehensive way. It also introduces the reader to more esoteric ideas as well as the basic research principles. The book should give students the ability to understand and criticize research procedures and findings. As it progresses from a theoretical background to actual techniques, analysis of results, testing data and preparation of the final dissertation, a complete guide to research is the result.
