Research Resource Feedback,
This review is from: Business Research Methods with CD (McGraw-Hill/Irwin) (Hardcover)
Cooper's Business Research Methods was easy to read, yet provided a high level of research processes and methodology for use in a PhD program.

This review is from: Business Research Methods with CD (McGraw-Hill/Irwin) (Hardcover)
Nothing is done in business these days without using research to make decisions. The days of simply using hunches and intuition are just about about gone. It really is a jungle out there, and research is one of your rifles. This book shows you why research is important, how to do it, and how to apply what you've found. Research, if done correctly, can help you minimize the variables which can destroy you, or accentuate the factors which can help you meet your mission objectives. No matter what size your business is, you can apply these principles to increase your chances of success. The book is very expensive, but so is failure. Pardon the cliche', but an ounce of prevention really is worth a pound of cure.
