Summary: This book offers advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students with an accessible introduction to the foundations of research in the human sciences.

A particular strength of this volume is its style: It is written to the student as opposed to just for them. Language is kept as clear as possible, especially when describing the basic assumptions upon which all research is built. - Provided by the publisher
