Summary, etc. Such diverse thinkers as Lao-Tze, Confucius, and U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld have all pointed out that we need to be able to tell the difference between real and assumed knowledge. The systematic review is a scientific tool that can help with this difficult task. It can help, for example, with appraising, summarising, and communicating the results and implications of otherwise unmanageable quantities of data.<br/>This book, written by two highly-respected social scientists, provides an overview of systematic literature review methods:<br/><br/>Outlining the rationale and methods of systematic reviews;<br/>Giving worked examples from social science and other fields;<br/>Applying the practice to all social science disciplines;<br/>It requires no previous knowledge, but takes the reader through the process stage by stage;<br/>Drawing on examples from such diverse fields as psychology, criminology, education, transport, social welfare, public health, and housing and urban policy, among others.<br/>Including detailed sections on assessing the quality of both quantitative, and qualitative research; searching for evidence in the social sciences;<br/>meta-analytic and other methods of evidence synthesis; publication bias; heterogeneity; and approaches to dissemination.
