Reviews

[Frits Brouwer · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very positivist. Fairly American. Not too bad.

[Aaron · Rating 3 out of 5]

Small, dry text on constructing arguments and framing cause/effect relationships in the social sciences, particularly political science. I read the first half of the book as assigned reading for a senior-level undergraduate course on Comparative Foreign Policy and finished up the book after the end of class. I found the book to be useful to read and especially to reference but it is extremely stale and boring. It’s not pleasure reading but the information it provides makes it worth a read for political science graduate students.

[Ian Fleischmann]

Good reference for construction of a political dissertation or monograph

[Jesse Morrow · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good group of essays. Nice compliment about W's on reading and writing in Social Sciences.
