Synopsis:
Designed for both students and practitioners, the new edition of this popular text has been thoroughly revised. It incorporates the latest thinking in public administration and nonprofit management. The book integrates both quantitative and qualitative approaches to research, and also provides specific instruction in the use of commonly available statistical software programs such as Excel and SPSS. The book is exceptionally well illustrated, with plentiful exhibits, tables, figures, and exercises.
Review:
"I have used earlier editions of this textbook with generally positive reception from students. What always attracts me to Professor McNabb's book is its comprehensiveness and his approachable style of writing. The third edition builds on both of these important strengths with further improvements. Among many important features, the comprehensive overview of qualitative approaches is a crucial strength of the book." --Dragan Stanisevski, Mississippi State University
"Dave McNabb has made a good book even better. Several things make this book unique. It is well referenced and 'normed' to the field of public administration; it is hands-on and experiential; and it goes beyond a simplistic approach to research, expertly weaving together positivistic and postpositivistic approaches, quantitative and qualitative design and analysis, and statistics and research methods. I've used many a text in my tenure as statistics/methods teacher--none can hold a candle to this one." --Cheryl Simrell King, The Evergreen State College
