Industry Reviews

Praise for previous editions:

?The perfect text for any health care professional who wishes to gain a sound understanding of research?This text succeeds where others fail in terms of the thoroughness of the research process and the accessible style in which the material is presented. In an age when nursing and health care research is going from strength to strength this book offers those in the world of academia and practice an excellent and essential 'bible' that is a must on any bookshelf? (Dr Aisha Holloway, Lecturer Adult Health, Division of Nursing, The University of Nottingham)

"This new edition is worth buying," (Nursing Standard, July 2010)

"The first edition of this book was published 20 years ago and I wish I had seen it then. It is only over the last 10 years or so that I have actively become more interested and this book would have certainly stimulated my interest much sooner. If you are undertaking a research activity it is a book that helps you each step of the way. A very understandable and enjoyable publication. (Accident and Emergency Nursing Journal)
