520			_a"This book has been the result of the author's many years of experience teaching research methodology and thesis writing. From her work as a teacher in research, she learned exactly the kind of knowledge and skills needed by the students who are taking the course and eventually will write their research reports. Therefore, she tried as much as she could to incorporate in this book, discussions and explanations of all the essential ideas, concepts, and principles in methods of research and the skills needed in thesis writing. The author took pains to make the ideas, concepts, and principles as easy to understand as possible. Aside from using simpler language, she included very clear and practical illustrations of the ideas, concepts and principles. Hence, this book can be used by graduate and as well as undergraduate students. The over-all plan is one in which the text starts with introductory materials showing the need for research, followed by the other chapters that deal on research methods, tools and instruments in research, simple statistics to know for treatment of data and how to evaluate, write and present a research report. Finally, a discussion on other research projects in business like Feasibility Study and Case Study. This book is especially good to be possessed by teachers and students of research and thesis writing and those who are contemplating to do some research work and eventually write their research reports. This book is a good guide to them. The recent changes in this book revision is the latest trend in research which is the IMRAD chapter-base format of writing report thesis / dissertation intended for publication in Chapter 4. Also, new and recent sampling formula has been added in Chapter 8. Many authors/readers familiar with writing about methods of research and thesis writing will notice that many of the important ideas, concepts, and principles found in this book came from different sources with only some sprinklings of ideas. The author is, therefore, expressing her thanks and gratitude to all those authors whose ideas, concepts, and principles have been used to enrich the content of this book." —Preface
