Review: Melissa Hardy & Alan Bryman (Eds.) (2004). Handbook of Data Analysis

Abstract

Editors HARDY and BRYMAN present qualitative and quantitative analysis methods in the same book. The individual chapters tend to deal with one or the other approach, though, and there may have been some opportunities missed in terms of discussing both together. The chapters are of high quality and present the current state of knowledge in a wide range of methods. Researchers and students will find the book useful and informative, but this is likely to be a book for libraries rather than individuals to purchase. URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0602200
