A range of quantitative approaches (beyond the traditional experiment) and qualitative approaches (e.g. discourse analysis) are discussed and stages of research from planning to reporting are all covered to A-level standard and beyond. Overall, an excellent text for the eclectic researcher.'Association of Teachers in Psychology (ATP).
