Rating: Summary: An excellent text Review: i have been teaching Business Research to MBA classes for 5 years. I have gone through many text books and tried out several as recommended reading for my classes. None come even close to the readability and sheer ease of use of this book by Professor Zikmund. It is well organised, and gives comprehensive coverage to all aspects of research without getting bogged down in theory. The examples, end of chapter questions and cases are interesting and serve as excellent discussion points in class. I am happy to see a new edition is available and hope that it will contain some more up to date examples.
Rating: Summary: A superb Text Review: I have been using Prof. William Zikmund's wonderful textbook, "Exploring Marketing Research," in my undergraduate marketing classes in the US since the early 1980s. When I started teaching "Research Methodolgy" to MBA students in Saudi Arabia some six years ago and discovered that Professor Zikmund has a text on the subject, I adopted that text without hesitation. The book is well written, easy to read and comprehend, and has several examples and very good applications and cases. I give it "A+" and recommend it to other professors and business researchers enthusiastically.

Rating: Summary: No Dust Bunnies! Review: This is one research methods text that will NOT be collecting dust bunnies on your shelf. It is extremely "user friendly" for the student/novice researcher but has the breadth and depth to remain useful to the expert and research professional. It is well organized so that you can skip around to the parts you need at the moment. It has lots of exercises and follow up readings/references to hammer home the content. I had 16 weeks of statistical research methods as part of my Masters program. If I would have had this book, I would have understood and got much, much more out of those 16 weeks. If I had just one research methods book to buy, THIS is IT! Don't waste your money on some academic text. Get this one and get the ability to hit the ground running with your research project!
