Description
A Tale of Two Cultures: Qualitative and Quantitative Research in the Social Sciences by Gary Goertz and James Mahoney explores the differences between qualitative and quantitative research methods in the social sciences. The authors identify key contrasts between these two traditions, affecting nearly every aspect of social science research, including design, goals, causal effects, data analysis, and more. By examining these differences, Goertz and Mahoney aim to promote mutual understanding and learning among researchers from different methodological backgrounds. This book is written in an approachable style, featuring real-world examples to illustrate key methodological points.
