It contains several essential aspects of general research methodology, and simplifies important concepts and procedures that students need to fully grasp in order to tackle their academic assignments with confidence.

Assuming no previous knowledge on the part of the reader, it is richly supported with examples, and will serve as a friendly companion to any student who aims for academic excellence. Practitioners in the field, and even teachers of research methodology, will also find the book useful as a revision guide.
