My hubby needed this book for a class his is taking...when we ordered it we never figured it would be here way before he needed it...it came 3 weeks before his class started so he had lots of time to look through it and see what the class would be about...Thanks for the speed...

Excellent book for those who needs introduction to media reaearch and know how of research too. Well explained in each scenario as to how research can be conducted using statistical techniques. However latest edition is way too expensive for a beginner. Renting is a good option.

I could not believe how fast I received this book. I ordered it with 1-day shipping (expensive) but it was completely worth the order (given I needed this the next day for a class). This book describes many useful descriptions and diagrams as to how mass media research is conducted. I totally recommend this book!

This textbook was a surprisingly good read. It was easy to understand with robust information without being too complex. The online study tools provided on the author's website was a great tool.

One of my favorite classes. I recommend this course to anyone getting into college or needing extra electives before graduating. Good luck.

I was forced to buy this book and I hated reading it. It didn't help me with my research paper. I would never buy this again.

I rented this book. Then I returned it because I wasnt using it in my class any longer. Still a good book though!
