>> Mandatory for any Researcher either Begineer or Pro
If you are into research keep a copy for yourself and nearby your belongings or just about at any place where you sit upon and write your research This book is by far the most compelling simple and well written about research methods It s simplicity may at first be seen as something for beginners But I challenge you to read it and then do let me know if you have not unveiled the masterpiece that this book is You make use of every sentence every quote in any stage of your research So read it and re read it
>> Mandatory for academic research optional for anything else
This book is literally a classic because it thoroughly covers the challenges involved in basic academic research It is intended as a course between covers on academic researchers It covers formulation of issues and questions determining and finding stories making your claims and how to write and support them Overall it will be of use to anyone who is new to academic research and writing
It is not a guide to sources nor a treatise on using particular resources Rather it is more along the line of teaching principles of effective research and academic writing
It serves students well but is lacking for those with real world research needs such as in business and law
Overall like so many academic style guides a nice book to keep on the shelf if you are outside of academia but not a necessary one

>> Research guide that s fun to read
I was required to read this book for a class I expected it to be relatively dull It s not It s a wonderful straight forward humorous and enlightening introduction to the craft of research These authors have tremendous synergy and a wealth of experience among them They write in a youthful and friendly tone but with the incisive wisdom of elders This book should certainly be a required read for any beginning researcher
