This book is practical step-by-step guide for conducting a successful research project. It does this by systematically explaining the theory of, and approaches to research, while at the same time helping the student/practitioner to develop the research subject; encouraging the formation of trained intellectual ability, critical analysis and independence of thought; tostering judgement and skill in the application of research theory and methods; and developing skills required in writing proposals, reports and theses. This revised and updated edition is based on a combination of three sequential approaches to guide the researcher: A cumulative approach which introduces, step-by-step, the features of and debate about the academic subject of research theory and methods. A problem-centered sequence that involves the researcher in the practical work of developing the skills needs to devise a good research proposal. A spiral sequence, where concepts and techniques are reiterated and developed over the course of the book. Additional features of this second edition are; an elaboration on the differing needs of students at different levels; an annotated bibliography at the end of each chapter which serves as a guide to further reading; new examples of successful research proposals from the fields of social science and healthcare; and a new chapter on research ethics. This edition is particularly aimed at assisting students and researchers through the important early stages of project planning.
