[Air-L] New research methods textbook

[Rosanna Guadagno]

Dear Colleagues,


I am posting the below message for my colleague, John Edlund (and am one of
the contributors to this new textbook). Check it out!


----- here's his message ------

Apologizes for cross-postings!



I am excited to announce the publication of my new edited book! I believe
that it is unlike anything else that is on the market. In addition to being
one of the least expensive books on the market in research methods, this
edited volume draws upon an interdisciplinary team across the social and
behavioral sciences. Written by global experts (covering 6 continents)
across a number of disciplines covering many aspects of research methods –
including research design, research tools, and statistical techniques – I
think it will invaluable to advanced undergraduates, graduate students and
graduate courses, and as a bookshelf reference to professionals. Below is
the table of contents. Please contact either of the editors (John E.
Edlund: john.edlund at rit.edu; or Austin Lee Nichols
austinleenichols at gmail.com) or Chuck Lamantia (clamantia at cambridge.org) at
Cambridge University Press to be sent an evaluation copy.
