| Summary, etc |
<br/>"Research Methods for Public Administration covers the entire research process, from initial questions to the final report. It takes in the common analytical techniques, including regression and inferential statistics, but sets analysis within the entire research process. Filled with practical examples that illustrate the social science concepts, the book avoids the use of jargon and explains difficult ideas in clear language. It includes plentiful end-of-chapter exercises that provide opportunities for concrete application of the concepts. Key points are highlighted as "takeaway lessons," and the tough questions to ask are suggested in every chapter."--Pub. desc. |
