A colleague of mine uses this book for her methods class. She goes on and on about how great her class is and how much students get out of it. I don't know. Maybe she's using a lot of supplementary materials or something? Because this book is so basic. There's really not a lot of depth. I cannot imagine how this book could be used as a textbook for a semester long class on research methods, esp. if it's set up for a chapter a week. The Political Science Research Methods book that I reviewed recently was much, much better.

Another textbook read in my pursuit of a bachelor's degree in psychology. This one had some informative information about doing research.

Had to read this for school. Very interesting if you plan to be a professional researcher. :-)
