520			_a"A Concise Introduction to Mixed Methods Research s a brief overview of mixed methods research that takes readers through the essential steps in planning and designing a study. Rather than offering an extensive treatment of mixed methods, this concise book offers individuals in the social, behavioral, and health sciences a foundation for understanding mixed methods methodology. Practical for use in workshops, seminars, global webinars, and as a supplementary text in undergraduate and graduate classes, it is ideal for the beginner or the more advanced researcher looking for a quick primer in mixed methods - by an authoritative mixed methods scholar."
