The Essential Guide to Doing Research is a comprehensive, practical, and engaging guide to understanding and embarking upon social science research. By adopting a clear and accessible approach, Zina O’Leary encourages students to think about, and engage with, every aspect of the research process.

The book stresses that all good research should be seen as a process of constantly assessing one’s work and making decisions about the best possible means for obtaining credible data and results.

The Essential Guide to Doing Research is therefore designed to encourage lateral, strategic and creative thinking, while providing essential knowledge and skills to students and researchers.
