It should be required reading for every student (and professor) in literary studies and, for that matter, in any humanistic discipline. Humanistic methods of inquiry certainly have their place, but all too often humanistic scholars present entire theories and have no idea how to test them or even realize that they should be tested in a scientific manner. Such scholars can only try to convince readers that they are right. It is absurd to use rhetoric when there are perfectly good empirical methods of testing such theories. If they are not so tested, they are quite likely to lead us astray. In a very engaging way, the authors almost seduce readers into wanting to learn about empirical methods and statistics. The book is full of suggested projects for students. Students are led through how to search sources such as PsycInfo in order to get ideas and then gradually introduced to basic statistics and shown in detail how to analyze data that they themselves may have gathered. By focusing on practical matters and not bothering much with formulas that will soon be forgotten, readers are given a good intuitive grasp of not just simple statistics but also statistics at an intermediate level. ","Here is a lucidly clear, fact-rich guide to empirical research in the traditional humanities. Given the shortage of methodological considerations in humanistic study, this is just what we need. It is not only students who will learn from this book, but scholars at all levels. Muses and Measures points to exciting new directions for disciplines involved in culture and aesthetics.

Denis Dutton University of Canterbury New Zealand ""Sometimes one book is enough to change the whole way of thinking or general attitude of students, and this is the case with Muses and Measures... It is a practice-orientated book to help students and tutors either to get acquainted with methodology that is still new to them and will definately enrich their research methods or deepen their knowledge and develop skills in the field. The book is clear and reader friendly. It invites students to enjoy research, using a conventional tone. The volume is truly absorbing: as you start reading, you cannot put the book aside... ...the book is an excellent reference source as it carefully guides students through all stages of research, leaving them independent where their own efforts are needed and offering some assistance where they do need support and guidance.""

",,Cambridge Scholars Publishing 2010-03-01,Shant Narsesian,"Football Fans, Their Information, The Web and The Personal Home Page",Hardback,978-1-4438-1862-9,49.99,"From the early days of the Internet to the present day, the World Wide Web has developed into one of the world's largest information resources. One of the first genres of web pages, which was also one of the first information resources, was the Personal Home Page (PHP). Over this same period of time, professional football in England has created the world's richest league and by extension an abundance of football-related PHPs. This book examines the role of the PHP as an information resource using the subject area of professional football in England. A holistic approach was taken so as to view the PHP in a broader context, as one information resource amongst many, including non-PHPs and even offline information resources (e.g. reference books). Within this study, football fans were interviewed along with web authors, surveys were carried out (by distributing both online and offline questionnaires) and additional research was also carried out online, examining football-related PHPs and online web collaborations. Results suggest that whilst there are many informational benefits to be found on PHPs, such as plentiful unique information, they have low levels of use amongst football fans. The study concludes by proposing an avenue to the maximisation of the informational benefit of PHPs through a blueprint for a type of communal football website called the Club Community Composite Page (CCCP). Overall, several contributions are made to the field of information science, most notably attaining an improved understanding of PHPs as unique and accurate information providers online and devising new research methods for PHP research. In particular, the method of identification of PHPs developed here will be a useful tool for future researchers of PHPs. The contributions of this work are likely to be of value to researchers working in relevant sub-fields of information science, such as information seeking, web genres, grey literature and virtual communities.
