"The mail survey bible" October 21, 2008
This is a great book to have handy when thinking about and doing surveys. Unfortunately, it reads a little dated (already), especially when dealing with electronic media. May be worth waiting for the next edition to get a more contemporary approach to web-based surveys.

Great for students May 11, 2008
I read this book for a grad class in survey research methods. It's easy to read, if a little dry. Most of the example surveys come from Dillman's work, and a greater mix of the topics of the example surveys would be nice. I would definitely recommend it to students and professors who are teaching classes in this topic.

Classic survey methods text July 7, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

For anyone who conducts online surveys, especially academic researchers, this is an essential text. Dillman's text is far superior to The Survey Kit by Arlene Fink. The only criticism I would offer is that Dillman assumes researchers are designing their own online surveys rather than using commercially available websites such as Survey Monkey. I would contend that the majority of survey research is conducted on commercial websites. Although these websites are changing rapidly, I would like Dillman to address this subject as well.
