| Abstract, Summary, etc. | The book in your hands has been about four de- cades in the making. It began in the classroom, when I was asked to teach a seminar in survey re- search. Frustrated with the lack of good textbooks on the subject, I began to dream up something I called “A Survey Research Cookbook and Other Fables,” which was published in 1973 with a more sober title: Survey Research Methods.<br/>The book was an immediate success. However, there were few courses limited to survey research. Several instructors around the country asked if “the same guy” could write a more general methods book, and The Practice of Social Research appeared two years later. The latter book has become a fix- ture in social research instruction, with the 11th edition published in 2006. The official Chinese edi- tion was published in Beijing in 2000.<br/>Over the life of this first book, successive revi- sions have been based in large part on sugges- tions, comments, requests, and corrections from my colleagues around the country and, increas- ingly, around the world. Many also requested a shorter book with a more applied orientation.<br/>Whereas the third quarter of the twentieth cen- tury saw a greater emphasis on quantitative, pure research, the century ended with a renaissance of concern for applied sociological research (some- times called sociological practice) and also a re- newed interest in qualitative research. The Basics of Social Research was first published in 1999 in support of these trends. The fourth edition aims at increasing and improving that support.<br/>The book can also be seen as a response to changes in teaching methods and in student de- mographics. In addition to the emphasis on applied research, some alternative teaching formats have called for a shorter book, and student eco- nomics have argued for a paperback. While stan- dard methods courses have continued using The Practice of Social Research, I’ve been delighted to see that the first three editions of Basics seem to have satisfied a substantial group of instructors as well. The fine-tuning in this fourth edition is in- tended to help Basics serve this group even better than before. |
