Summary: Very superficial
Comment: We used this text in a graduate nursing research course. It covers materials superficially and is not useful for planning research, especially qualitative research. The statistics section was particularly useless. While it describes many statistical tests it does not provide the information needed to actually conduct the tests nor does it compare and contrast the usefullness of one test verses another.

Summary: poorly organized
Comment: I have used this text for class and find it to be poorly organized. Specifically, if you approach the chapters as ordered, students feel that the course sequence is redundant, yet because of the global and superficial approach, they still need additional work with basic concepts like measurement, validity, and others. Some of the "middle of the book " chapters seem more like enrichment materials, yet these are presented before core concepts are covered.In the future,I will go back to the tried and true Polit and Hunglar text.

Summary: Life saver!
Comment: I am a senior BSN student in West Texas. We have been studying the research process as it applies to the nursing profession. Our text book we used was limited in explanation. I found Burns & Grove to be a life saver when preparing for exams and assignments. Throughout my research course I used several nursing research books as a reference book. None compared to Burns & Grove. It has explanations of the research process, theories, and statistics. You name it, it has it all. I highly recommend this book to all BSN students or anyone interested in nursing research. My only wish is this would have been the assigned text book for my class! This is one nursing book I definitely will be purchasing.
