Review

′By far the very best treatment of this topic in the field today ′ -
Norman Denzin,
University of Illinois

′The second edition of Social Research: An Introduction firmly establishes this book as a standard amongst introductory methods books. It is comprehensive and covers the whole range of frequently used methods. It is clearly built on solid pedagogic and conceptual foundations. David and Sutton write from the position of experienced, theoretically informed researchers with a genuine commitment to pluralism in research methods. It is clearly written, yet sophisticated and is a valuable resource for both students and professionals new to social research and more experienced researchers who wish to expand their methodological repertoire′ -
Malcolm Williams, Director of the School of Social Sciences,
University of Cardiff

Praise for the first edition:

′... a valuable addition to the social research literature because it provides practical and detailed support to undergraduates who are conducting research for the first time′ - Professor Tim May, University of Salford

′... balanced, user-friendly and timely′ - Norman Denzin, University of Illinois
