Rezensionen

"The literature review is no longer a brief preliminary to the real business of doing social research. There is no topic which has not been studied previously in some form and by some means. Research synthesis and secondary analysis have moved to the core of social inquiry. Hart s text provides clear and authoritative guidance on how to anchor a study." Raymond Pawson
