Since its first edition in 1985, Patrick McNeill's "Research
Methods" has become a classic introductory text for undergraduate
students of sociology and for a range of specialists in disciplines
such as education, business, social care, and medicine who need a
brief but authoritative account of how sociologists set about doing
research.
After a brief overview of the history of sociological research,
which introduces some of the key concepts, the book describes the
main sociological research methods, with a final chapter about
theory, science, and values. An appendix provides a set of
questions that students should ask when they are evaluating
accounts of research.
This new edition, co-authored with Steve Chapman, retains the
clarity of style of the second edition, and brings the content up
to date in terms of:
* references to research studies
* developments in relevant sociological theory
* developments in research methodology
* new material on the presentation of research findings.
