"Research Methods in Human Development" by Kathleen W. Brown, Paul C. Cozby, Daniel W. Kee, and Patricia E. Worden offers a comprehensive overview of research methodologies in the context of human development. Published by Mayfield Publishing Company in 1999, this second edition builds upon the foundational work first introduced in 1989. This hardcover volume is published from Mountain View, California, and features illustrations by Joan Carol. It provides balanced coverage of both qualitative and quantitative research methods, with updates that reflect the interdisciplinary nature of human development and family science. This edition is particularly valuable for its expanded treatment of diversity research and the inclusion of practical research examples. Although this copy is an ex-library edition, it remains a valuable resource for students and professionals in social sciences. The book’s condition reflects its previous use, yet it continues to serve as a vital tool for understanding research methodologies.
