Description:

The market-leading textbook that offers clear, robust and pragmatic guidance on your dissertation or research project.

This fully revised 9th edition provides excellent coverage guiding you through the entire process, from deciding on a research topic to writing your dissertation or project and presenting your academic poster. By taking a transactional approach, the textbook will help you choose your project through critically reviewing the literature and designing your research, answering key questions such as:

  • How do I generate a research idea and design my research?
  • How do I review the literature critically?
  • Why is research philosophy relevant to my research?
  • How do I collect and analyse my data?

This comprehensive guide to conducting research will support you step-by-step at every stage of the process, offering a wealth of thought-provoking features and activities, such as tips and tricks from other students' experiences on their research projects and a complete glossary of terms. It provides case studies, news, and articles based on the latest virtual and face-to-face methods, discussing how research is used in practice within organisations worldwide. Self-study prompts will further encourage you to apply what you have learned to your own research project.

Get data-confident with the worked examples, self-test questions, and downloadable datasets, and take the Heightening Awareness of Research Philosophy survey (HARP) to understand more about your own research philosophy and how it affects your research project.

Written by experts in the field, this resource guides you through developing your research skills by taking a clear, concise, and transparent approach, helping you complete and successfully present your research.

Doesn't look like a new book. Really poor quality print. Sending it back.

3.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book. Condition of cover not new. Lots of scuff marks.

M.H. · 1 October 2023

I have used the previous edition of this book for my dissertation proposals and undergraduate assessments. Gives everything you need and more and is helpful to even seasoned researchers. The updates are really good and incorporates contemporary business topics such as sustainability and post pandemic considerations. Purchased own version as used library copy so much I wanted own version to annotate. Excellent research book.Review score is a reflection of the cover condition not the content.
