[Maddie · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book provides a behind-the-scenes perspective on how new researchers designed their first major studies and how they navigated issues of reliability and validity. In addition, the expert comments adds an additional layer of understanding of how a study can achieve coherence between research questions, design, and analysis. A very insightful read; I highly recommend it!
