Reviews
This book has been the leading text for nurse researchers for many years. The third edition, which has been extensively revised and updated, continues to equip nurses with the knowledge and skills to critique, carry-out and disseminate research. It remains an invaluable resource for nurses at all stages of their research journey. -- Dr. Julie MacInnes
This 3^rd edition book is a handy companion to the nursing students who are uninitiated in research work. It is very comprehensive and for a beginner the detailed contents of each chapter and the cross reference chapter indicated with each explanation serves as a quick reference guide for those using the book. The common features of a summary at end of each chapter with additional websites provides value added information. -- Dr Faridah Hashim

An excellent book which would be of benefit to any student who is studying or carrying out research in nursing.

-- Chris Wheable
Research is important yet many pre and post graduate nurses and allied health professionals fear it. [This book] can help demystify research for the novice, yet support more experienced researchers and academics. It is easy to read and incorporates UK legislation and changes in healthcare and research agendas such as including patient and public involvement. -- Jenny Abraham, Journal of Perioperative Practice
