I only read part III that was required for my course, so I have no idea about the other parts. But I loved it! It was easy to read, clear and so detailed.
It explains all the basic research methodology very well. It's not too difficult to understand and has lots of examples. Only they should have added qualitative research practices as well. (Haha could have saved me lots of Wikipedia reading yesterday before my paper) If anyone is interested in research methods, they should definitely check this. :)
Had to read this for my Research Methods class and once again my school chose one easily relatable and necessary in order to follow and understand. I love how I can picture using a book like this as a reference for when I begin my Master's classes.
