About the Author 425
The new second edition of Research Methods for Political Science is designed to help
political science students learn what to research, why to research, and how to research.
The book covers such important topics as research design, specifying research
problems, designing questionnaires and writing questions, designing and carrying out
qualitative research, and analyzing both quantitative and qualitative research data.
A key advantage of this book is that it integrates both quantitative and qualitative
approaches to research in one volume, and includes the most comprehensive coverage
of qualitative methods currently available on the market. It also provides specific instruc-
tions in the use of available statistical software programs such as Excel and SPSS.
The text has been thoroughly class-tested, is copiously illustrated, and is exception-
ally readable and engaging for students. The second edition has been thoroughly
updated, considerably tightened up (from 32 to 25 chapters), and is now available in
a paperback edition.
About the Author
David E. McNabb (Ph.D. Oregon State University) is a research professor at Pacific
Lutheran University. He has held recent visiting professorships at the Stockholm
School of Economies-Riga, the Evergreen State College, the University of Mary-
land-UC (Europe), and the University of Washington-Tacoma. He has served as
director of communications for a caucus of the Washington House of Representatives
and as director of economic development for Fullerton, California. He has authored
four books and more than sixty articles and conference papers.
Praise from the Field
Research Methods in Political Science features a comprehensive approach to quanti-
tative and qualitative research methods, with a lucid style that clearly and accessibly
presents complex concepts. With this second edition, McNabb has improved his fine
text by making it more succinct, while expanding its coverage of important topics such
as qualitative research and how to craft a research report. It remains a superb resource
for students of political science research methods.
—Larry Geri, Evergreen State University
