′Haslam and McGarty go the extra mile in this unique and excellent title, covering both quantitative and qualitative methods. The text does a superb job of justifying the necessity for research methods and statistics, before gradually building to comprehensively cover more complex material. Analyses are dealt with in an easy to comprehend, engaging and lively manner. A must have title for those studying and teaching research methods and statistics.′ ′Balanced, engaging, suitable for beginners.  This textbook makes research methods interesting and relevant -- a must read for students who are terrified of research.′
