The book begins at a very elementary level and progresses systematically through topics that are more complex, providing the reader with a good understanding of the principles and practices of research and with tools for analyzing the quality of research. I'm sure I'll be referring to this well-written book for many years to come.
This is an excellent book. It makes studying research very easy to follow and understand. Great resource book! A must-have for any research course on any level (graduate or undergraduate).
This text is a good basic reference for the beginning nurse researcher. It has very clear explanations of the research process and applies them nicely to the clinical setting.
Watch your ISBN! I typed in the correct ISBN and his book came up. His ISBN is completely different and you will get a South Asian Edition, not what my profressor recommends for a US class. Seller will say it was your mistake, rebut that he offered to take the book back but neglect to tell you you had to pay S&H. I had to get involved since he would not budge on paying S&H.
As a grad student, it is impossible to timely reference this book in APA format. This is the second book I have purchased from and not been able to site the appropriate pages automatically. You have "Location" numbers instead of "page" numbers. It is very frustrating. This is a MUST to get remediated.
This textbook provides everything an aspiring nurse researcher could want to know. But I find the writing style very academic, wordy, and hard to get through. I'm a straight-A BSN student, and I have to read most sentences more than once to understand what they're saying. Research is not my style, but this book is probably helpful if you enjoy it. A statistics background would be very helpful. Most students will be required to get this book for a class, so this review is moot, but not probably a great pick for pleasure reading.
This text relays authoritative content, a time-tested step-by-step approach, and abundant use of research examples. With improved clarity and readability, this edition strengthens its focus on evidence-based practice to better demonstrate how the steps of the research process relate to evidence-based nursing. In addition, the text offers unique insights into understanding, appraising, and applying published research to evidence-based practice.
It references recent research in nursing - very good, I inadvertently purchased the English India version which can be used in US classes. I will keep for a few years at least through my degree work.
