"This is a welcomed text.  Students do struggle with the terminology and how to apply the various techniques.  Hopefully this will help students in the most important area of study." -- Jonathan Groucutt, Oxford Brookes University
 
"I think the idea for the publication is sound …. students are always looking for a clear and straightforward introduction to Management Research and management research projects and I think the proposal has a good deal of commercial appeal. Many students find the language of research methodology difficult and some find them incomprehensible … I applaud the desire to tackle the issues raised in the proposal." -- Heather J. Höpfl, Professor of Management, University of Essex
