Social Research Methods by Example
Social Research Methods by Example shows students how
researchers carry out work on the cutting edge of social science.
The authors illustrate every point through engaging,
thought-provoking examples from real research. The language is
jargon-free, making research methods less intimidating and more
relatable. The text is divided into three major sections, the
first of which introduces students to the principles of research
through examples from various fields. The second section walks
students through the major types of social science research, with
each chapter focusing on a different technique. The third section
shows students how to carry out basic quantitative data analysis
in SPSS. The final chapter shows how technological advances have
changed the way researchers are working, and looks at the
direction of social science research in the future.

Social Research Methods by Example not only introduces
students to the principles of social science research, but gives
them a toolbox to carry out their own. By the time they are
finished with the book, students will be conversant with many of
the most important studies in the history of social science. They
will understand not only how to conduct research, but also how
the field has evolved over time.
