Rezensionen

"Mannay's text is an excellent reference to have on hand. It will also be useful in methods courses. While it most directly applies to visual methods, the discussions this book prompts will be useful regardless of the type of data collection or dissemination utilized or the field of inquiry." - Dr. Rita Shah, Visual Methodologies
