Combining the latest thinking in the field with practical, step-by-step guidance, the Third Edition of John W. Creswell and Vicki L. Plano Clark’s Designing and Conducting Mixed Methods Research now covers seven mixed methods designs with accompanying journal articles illustrating each design. The authors walk readers through the entire research process, and present updated examples from published mixed methods studies drawn from multiple disciplines. In addition, this new edition includes information about the dynamic and evolving nature of the field of mixed methods research, four additional methodological approaches, and coverage of new directions in mixed methods.

For a student (or practitioner) of mixed methods, this is a thorough book that systematically builds up the concepts with appropriate case studies and citations. The authors also provide an excellent overview of the progression of MM discipline, addresses the key criticisms, and provides excellent pointers on where the discipline is headed. Clearly, intended as a text book, chapters end with suggested activities and additional references; while the primary target is academia, researchers needing to branch out to include MM designs will benefit significantly with the systematic approach. The appendices provide a variety of case studies that address all aspects of MM designs. Overall, a great book to start with MM.

I have some other books by John Creswell and find them all for be excellent recources, and this book is no exception. This is a great overview of mixed methods research methodology, which is an often misunderstood form of research. Creswell walks through the process of designing a mixed methods study from start to finish, including why to use this methodology since it is a very principled, disciplined approach. I recommend this book as a resource for any one considering mixed methods study, as a text for a research methods class for graduate level students, or for reference for a research office.

Admittedly, I selected “Designing and Conducting Mixed Methods Research” by John W. Creswell and Vicki L. Plano Clark to learn more about this topic. Being unfamiliar with the topic and the book being a textbook, the book took me longer to get through. I think with someone who is more familiar with the topic or perhaps studying the topic or in need of using the method(s), it would be a must faster read. Slow as I was in reading it, I found it to be well organized, well explained and well presented. There were areas that did go over my head but I was surprised by how much I could understand and I credit the authors on that score. They did a good job of explaining their ideas for designing and conducting mixed methods research and it makes me curious to learn more.

Un libro con información valiosa, aporta una perspectiva clara acerca de los métodos mixtos, pocos libros como éste.Recomiendo para estudiantes de posgrados que no han tenido acercamiento a métodos mixtos.

I purchased this book to help me design my dissertation research. The book was very helpful. I preferred it over the book the professor recommended. Since my professor had little background knowledge with my topic, I had to teach myself. I find this book to be reader-friendly and easy to follow due to realistic examples.
