Academic research is a different world to that which is normally encountered in everyday life and as such it has a unique set of concepts and issues with which it operates.
Learning the vocabulary required understanding these concepts and issues is a non-trivial challenge.
This book A Dictionary of Research Concepts and Issues has been prepared to assist students, lecturers and others who wish to improve their command of the language of research.
The 600 concepts and issues is not a definitive list of the ideas which a researcher could encounter but it is a solid basis on which to build a sound understanding of this interesting subject.
