Field Experiments in Political Science and Public Policy - Peter (University College London John - Bog

Peter John¿s latest book is an introduction to experimentation in political science and public policy. It first defines experimentation and offers historical context, and then moves on to review key features of the statistical method, all the while linking experimentation to core ideas in politics and public policy. Yet rather than functioning as just a research methods text, the book instead is an invitation to the intellectual project and research program of experimentation, which has large ramifications for how researchers and students of political science and public policy carry out their work more generally.
