"Seven Rules for Social Research" teaches social scientists how to get the most out of their technical skills and tools, providing a resource that fully describes the strategies and concepts no researcher or student of human behavior can do without. Glenn Firebaugh provides indispensable practical guidance for anyone doing research in the social and health sciences today, whether they are undergraduate or graduate students embarking on their first major research projects or seasoned professionals seeking to incorporate new methods into their research. The rules are the basis for discussions of a broad range of issues, from choosing a research question to inferring causal relationships, and are illustrated with applications and case studies from sociology, economics, political science, and related fields. Though geared toward quantitative methods, the rules also work for qualitative research. "Seven Rules for Social Research" is ideal for students and researchers who want to take their technical skills to new levels of precision and insight, and for instructors who want a textbook for a second methods course. The Seven Rules are as follows: there should be the possibility of surprise in social research; look for differences that make a difference, and report them; build reality checks into your research; replicate where possible; compare like with like; use panel data to study individual change and repeated cross-section data to study social change; and, let method be the servant, not the master.

《案例研究方法的应用(第2版)(校订新译本)》结合案例研究方法的理论，为读者提供了一些应用案例研究方法进行研究的“案例”。这些“案例”都是由作者本人主持完成的，对意欲采用案例研究方法进行研究的读者能起到一种范例的作用。对于《案例研究方法的应用(第2版)(校订新译本)》的阅读，我们有三点建议：《案例研究方法的应用(第2版)(校订新译本)》讲述的每个案例，都建基于案例研究的基本理论，这些基本理论均详述于其姊妹篇《案例研究：设计与方法》一书，因此，将两《案例研究方法的应用(第2版)(校订新译本)》结合起来阅读效果更好。 在讲每个案例前，作者都提供了相应的材料框，这些材料框是理解相应案例研究的理论基础，因此，对书中22个材料框的理解十分重要。 书中案例的排版形式变化也传递了某种进行案例研究的方式（如：《案例研究方法的应用(第2版)(校订新译本)》第5章的变化），因此，这些版式变化绝不是可有可无的，读者应该去理解这些变化的意义。

Studying a social science degree? Need to know how to develop your research methods and write up your results more effectively?
