Making Sense in the Social Sciences A Student's Guide to Research and Writing

The Making Sense series offers clear, concise guides to research and writing for students at all levels of undergraduate study. The volumes in the Making Sense series-covering courses in the humanities, social sciences, life sciences, engineering, psychology, religious studies, and education-are intended for students in any undergraduate course with a research and writing component, but are especially appropriate for those at the first-year level.

Revisions to the sixth edition of Making Sense in the Social Sciences include new chapter summaries, coverage of new developments in technology-based research and writing, new sections on systematic literature reviews and on the nature of knowledge, and up-to-date coverage of MLA, APA, and SSS documentation styles.
