Abstract

As the title suggests, this book is about both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies. It is not a ‘technical’ research methodology textbook. Instead it provides a conceptual discussion of the main themes of social science research. The student is supplied with a systematic coverage of a full range of topics related to research in the social sciences.
