Given the increased use of qualitative and mixed methods, and the continued use of quantitative methods, Creswell's third edition of Research Design: Qualitative, Quantitative, and Mixed Methods Approaches is most timely.He not only compares and contrasts these approaches but also promotes a framework, a process, and strategies for the design and conduct of research in the human and social sciences.The book has two parts.The four chapters that make up Part 1, "Preliminary Considerations," describe the basic elements of a research undertaking, such as philosophical assumptions, the literature review, the use of theory, and the writing style and ethics.The six chapters in Part 2, "Designing Research," elaborate on the design components of research, such as the introduction, the research purpose, research questions and problems, and methods and procedures for data collection and analysis
