Reviewers Comments
"This is a wonderful tonic for those who want to reject methodological bigotry. It must be the most refreshing book on research methodology I have ever read. Congratulations for informed neutrality! Manages to combine cool objectivity with both enthusiasm and passion. One can see why the first edition was successful. Here is clarity, reassurance, encouragement and caution all in one!"
Anthony Gale, University of Portsmouth.
"Second editions, like movie sequels, rarely surpass the originals. Real World Research is a stunning exception. Robson has brilliantly expanded and revised what was already the best book on how to actually do research in applied settings. From its far more sophisticated philosophical grounding to the expanded and updated treatments of both quantitative and qualitative methods, it is an impressive accomplishment and an exciting read.
