Reviews

"I am very impressed. I liked the accessible style, the fresh writing, the no-nonsense approach to research methods, which stressed the craft aspect of the job. The best part of the book is the clear examples which often draw from the author's experience in research."--Peter John, Birkbeck College, University of London
