This is a required textbook for class. It's good because it also gives online help.


4 out of 5 stars Helpful, but expensive.   September 21, 2008
This book is a pretty good introduction into research methods - I'd recommend it especially to Master's students in the areas of education, library and information science, and maybe public policy/administration.

The book was in excellent condition. It was shipped out quickly and I received it about a week before my class started.
