Reviews

'This is a welcomed text. Students do struggle with the terminology and how to apply the various techniques. Hopefully this will help students in the most important area of study.' - Jonathan Groucutt, Oxford Brookes University 'I think the idea for the publication is sound ... students are always looking for a clear and straightforward introduction to Management Research and management research projects and I think the proposal has a good deal of commercial appeal. Many students find the language of research methodology difficult and some find them incomprehensible ... I applaud the desire to tackle the issues raised in the proposal.' - Heather J. Hopfl, Professor of Management, University of Essex
