Metodologi Penelitian : Kualitatif Saja - Research Metodology : Just Qualitative

This book is written with a longing for the science between theory and practice to be easy and grounded. Many undergraduate and post graduate students are still reluctant to use Qualitative methods. Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches have their respective followers. Some scientists consider quantitative research to be higher in value than qualitative, whereas qualitative researchers assume that quantitative research is too rigid and tends to reduce people's minds.

Most of the reactions from students that qualitative research is difficult and  take time (long process). This book is titled "Research Methodology: Just Qualitative " to answer the challenge, invites students and researchers to dare to write and think that qualitative research is not always as difficult as it thinks. Do not be afraid, let's try it "Qualitative approach".
