Explains how to select a topic for research; how to review literature; how to collect data; how to analyse data; how to interpolate between the data; how to estimate error in the calculations; how to calculate various statistical parameters for the results; how to present results; and how to write a research paper and a thesis.

This book explains how to select topic for doing research; how to review literature; how to collect data; how to analyze the data; how to interpolate between the data; how to estimate error in the calculations; how to calculate various statistical parameters for the results; how to present results; how to write a research paper and a thesis for the award of degree.

It asks what is a research journal; what is the difference between an editor of a research journal and a referee for a research paper; what is an editorial board of a research journal.

It provides information about various techniques required for analyzing the data; information about the hypotheses testing; and statistical tests and application of computers in research.
