Researchers, especially the non-native speakers, must overcome all difficulties from drafting a research plan to summarizing the research results. This book entitled Research Methodologies for Beginners, written by skillful researcher Dr. Locharoenrat, will be the best guide map for them. -Dr. Yoshihiro Miyauchi, National Defense Academy, Japan This is an essential handbook for students and researchers, especially those who are beginners in the field of science and engineering. It gives an overview of the main methods used in research, including recent literature and examples. What makes this book stand out from other methodology books, however, is the simple language and the student-friendly approach that the author has employed in the book. It is a compass that will guide new researchers from their starting point to their destination. -Dr. Jessada Salathong, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand
