A book by Christopher I. Rider


Yeah, Yeah, But… and Therefore

How to Frame, Design, and Defend a Contribution in the Social Sciences

Most research training splits one craft into two that rarely meet: framing and theory on one side, design and identification on the other. This book welds them — treating the argument that frames a contribution and the evidence that supports it as a single, integrated craft. Written for early-career social scientists working without a deep bench of empirical mentors, it carries one worked example from an interesting question to a defended contribution, and pairs with a free companion site of code, tools, and templates.
