Book Reviews of Applied Social Research: A Tool for the Human Services
Book Review: A good practical guide for social research
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the good things about this book is that it contains many useful charts and diagrams. For example, the procedure of making guttman scales is explained in an easily understandable manner with example charts. Suggestions for further readings also contain many useful and recent materials. As a practical guide for social research, I recommend this book, because it is reader-friendly and does not require a lot of reading; everything needed is found at a glance.
