Pretty handy and practical tools and quite good frameworks for structuring the whole work.

I can see why! Since I am considering using the case study process for my dissertation research, this book helped me visualize how it might work. Yin filled the book with cogent examples from many fields, with references to find the original study. These examples were both relatively current and from decades past; this range of times helped me see the growth in the case study process and its breadth of applicability. <br /> <br />The book is not a follow-the-numbers process by any means, no cookie-cutter here. Instead, it contains a structured process from beginning to end, including analysis and reporting. Along the way, Yin forces the reader to ask questions and consider the applicability of the case study approach to one's own work. <br /> <br />All in all, very helpful and no doubt, it will be a reference for me in years to come. <br /> Rating: 5 / 5 As a doctoral student, I purchased this book when a research professor at my university recommended it.

The book is not a follow-the-numbers process by any means, no cookie-cutter here. Instead, it contains a structured process from beginning to end, including analysis and reporting. Along the way, Yin forces the reader to ask questions and consider the applicability of the case study approach to one’s own work.

All in all, very helpful and no doubt, it will be a reference for me in years to come.

Those who are looking for a detailing of the rationale for using case study will find it here.

Dr. Yin is a leader in case study research and has valuable information regarding components to a dissertation that are unique to case studies.

As partial fulfilment of the MBA we are required to embark on a case study reaserch on a given Brand. I found this book to be extremely helpful in that there was no other book that provided a structured approach to doing a case study. I recommend this book to anyone who embarks on a case study research. Rating: 5 / 5 I am reading for my MBA at PIM , University of Sri Jayawardanepura , Sri Lanka.
