Summary
Equipping researchers in the social sciences with the skills needed to prepare and write an exceptional research proposal, this helpful resource provides a hands-on, user-friendly approach for both novice and experienced researchers. Featuring step-by-step guidelines, simple explanations of intricate concepts, sections on the triangulation and crystallization of ideas, and a section on writing a proposal for funding, this complete guide is approachable but does not dilute the conceptual and terminological complexities involved. A CD-ROM with examples of real proposals and a template for creating proposals is also included.
