Supplements
This is a very practical text with a particular focus on managers.
Good for post-grads.
I recommend the book to students who, having passed the course, would like to write their bachelor thesis on a course-related subject.
An extremely useful text for part-time, post graduate students with work experience - John Gill speaks their language.
Maintains the excellent standards achieved in the first three editions.
An excellent book particularly for those involved in practitioner research
A useful text for managers starting on a course of research for the first time.
The perfect book for introducing students to write their bachelor or master thesis.
The level of the book is too high for the level of the course.
However, the book is very good, and I will recommend it to my collegues teaching on the higher level program.
This has been a standard text for some years and the new addition continues to maintain the high standard of the past.
