“The Bedford Researcher leads students through every stage of the researching and writing processes, making an overwhelming research project seem attainable. I find myself assigning more reading assignments and exercises for my students for homework and in-class work because they find them helpful—and actually complete them!”
—Dawn Terrick, Missouri Western State University
“This is the finest research textbook I’ve found in over 30 years of teaching at two universities and two fine community colleges. Palmquist has done a superb job of making the process understandable and manageable for students and instructors.”
— Lance Sparks, Lane Community College
“Palmquist helps students think about new and effective ways of research in all major disciplines and about where to find sources most other books don’t even begin to deal with.”
—Eugene Richie, Pace University
“The Bedford Researcher is the most comprehensive and current research handbook I’ve seen. It is very logically organized and thorough in its coverage of research writing, particularly with regard to the use of online sources and technology…. This handbook is one my students would be very likely to use throughout their entire college career.”
— Lauri Bohanan Goodling, Georgia Perimeter College
“I’m very impressed with this book. If I had the time and resources, this is the book I would write for my students.”
— Jennifer Merrifield, Potomac State College of WVU
