It is very accessible and engaging... in constant dialogue with the concerns of average students. Difficult issues are introduced in an accessible way with a lot of concrete examples. -- Klaus Nielsen This is a well structured, comprehensive yet student friendly book that will certainly help business students understand and navigate with much greater clarity the complex phenomenon of research methods. I would recommend this valuable resource to any student who needs to undertake an undergraduate business research project. -- Emanuel Gomes This is the most student-friendly research methods book I have come across. Its strength lies in that it is rigorous and well-informed and it uses everyday accessible language to discuss the various aspects of research - it effectively demystifies the subject. Although the author states that the book is written for under-graduate students it could equally well be used by post-graduate students.
