"It has the best balance between qualitative and quantitative methods of any book on the market. Very good on measurements and scientific methods. Good issues (interdisciplinary) on ethics."
(Cynthia J. Buckley)"[Schutt’s] strengths: clear identification of key issues in research design (i.e. measurement, sampling and causation) as well as major data collection techniques. I will continue to use it."
(Deborah Bhattacharyya)"Its chief virtue is its use of research examples to illustrate methodological concepts and its readability. My students have found Schutt’s book more engaging and accessible than other method texts. I will continue to use it because it works."
(Mark Shibley)"Students find the prose both accessible and . . . interesting. One student commented recently, ‘For a textbook, especially a methods one, it is almost enjoyable to read.’"
(Adam Weinberg)Highly acclaimed and widely used since its first publication, the Third Edition of Investigating the Social World retains all the features so widely praised in earlier editions, but now also includes: separate sections on qualitative methods in each chapter; a new `Developing A Research Proposal' section at the end of each chapter; many new web exercises, and SPSS exercises updated to GSS 98 data sets.
The Third Edition: is written so that the `doing' of social research is closely and consistently linked to important social issues, demonstrating not only the value of research, but also how technique and substance are intimately related; provides key supports for effective teaching with guides for critiquing research articles, exercises for applying research skills, and examples of analyzing and reporting social data; treats ethical concerns and ethical decision-making in tandem with each study of specific methods; and joins an emphasis on `how to do' research with an equal emphasis on giving students the critical skills necessary to evaluate research done by others.
