This unique reader for research methods courses looks at how social
scientists ask and answer questions. The Practice of Research
presents a practical guide to doing research by excerpting
well-known studies by some of the most distinguished social science
researchers in the field today. The excerpts represent nine
methodological approaches and are accompanied by reflections where
authors reveal how they resolved some of the challenges that face
almost all research projects.
Contributors include:
* Jessica Brown, University of Houston
* Shelley Correll, Stanford University
* Eszter Hargittai, Northwestern University
* Michael T. Heaney, University of Michigan
* Steven Hitlin, University of Iowa; J. Scott Brown, Miami
University; and Glen H. Elder, Jr., University of North
Carolina
* Ziad Munson, Lehigh University
* Mario Luis Small, University of Chicago
The personal reflections written by authors of each excerpted paper
were prepared specifically for this volume. Focusing on the
experience of actually doing research, The Practice of Research
illustrates methods in action. This volume lets students not just
read exemplary papers, but also gives students access to these
authors as they personally narrate their practical solutions to
common research challenges.
