Many of the standard social science methodology texts do not cover the literature review as a method in itself, yet it is a compulsory part of doing research. Although it is fairly
straightforward to teach social science research methodology, the process of research and techniques for quantitative and qualitative design, the part of research most students find difficult
is writing a critical review of existing knowledge - the literature review.
An Introduction to Traditional and Systematic Literature Reviews is an accessible and practical introduction for students on how to conduct both 'traditional' and systematic literature
reviews and incorporate them into their research. This book is ideal for any health, business or social science student looking to embark upon their own project.
