Recenzii
'Most methodology books focus on the dry nuts and bolts of empirical inquiry, and often fail to provide an engaging pedagogical context for undergraduates. This book is different. By embedding methodological discussions within the context of important substantive questions, this volume conveys the science of politics in action. I only wish that such a book were available when I was a student.'—Howard Lavine, Arleen C. Carlson Professor of Political Science, University of Minnesota
'Malici and Smith do two things we rarely see in research methods texts: they cover the rich, broad spectrum of empirical approaches in the discipline and they convey these techniques through first-hand examples. The result is a book that is engaging, accessible, and uniquely valuable to political science students and instructors.'—Francis Neely, Associate Professor, San Francisco State University
‘The timely update of Malici and Smith's book helps students understand how political scientists investigate real-world problems using a full spectrum of methodological tool set. It continued the previous edition's one-of-a-kind storytelling approach that makes political science research approachable, relevant, and even fun. It will be welcomed by both teachers and students of political science research methods alike.’— Yi Edward Yang, Professor of Political Science, James Madison University

Descriere
Malici and Smith engage students first with pressing political questions and then demonstrate how a researcher has gone about answering them, walking them through real political science research. Each chapter shows the process of developing a research question.
