Practical Research is dedicated to one end: to teach readers basic research methodology and scientific method. The approach of this book is broad. The research principles set forth in this book are equally applicable to all disciplines where the tenets of the scientific method are valid for the solution of problems and the ultimate pursuit of truth. This book simplifies research concepts for ease of reading and better understanding of research methodology. This practical book provides helpful answers to unexpected questions posed by inexperienced researchers. This broad-spectrum book is suitable for all courses in basic research methodology. Since the methodology of research transends the limitations of specific academic area, Practical Research was not written for any specific course or discipline.
