`Aimed at those studying at Masters level... this is a concentrated and thorough read... The systematic and methodical approach to the description of research processes is excellent... In working with organizations, we have all become used to a culture of evaluation and accountability. This book gives us an opportunity to fill in some of the gaps in our training which commonly ignores both. The author invites us to become practitioner/scientists or researchers. We are asked to take some active responsibility for our methods of practice by evaluating evidence and therefore achieving maximum effectiveness - a stimulating challenge′ - Counselling at Work

This book focuses on the interpretation and evaluation of scholarly and scientific research, taking students through the process of developing research projects. Using concrete examples from the professional literature used by students in counselling and educational research, the author clearly illustrates the research concepts valuable to these future professionals.
