Babbie s comments are accompanied by graphics that evolve as the video progresses and illustrate the ideas discussed. This section of the CD also links students to Chapter tutorials, Practice Quizzes, Primers on important Data Analysis software, and the Babbie companion website where students will find a wealth of useful study resources.Babbie, Earl R. is the author of 'Basics of Social Research', published 2005 under ISBN 9780534630355 and ISBN 0534630359.
