Abstract
"Today, content analysis has become an efficient alternative to public opinion research - a method of tracking marketsm political leanings, and emerging ideas, a way to settle legal disputes, and an approach to explore individual human minds. The Third edition offers the ideal sourcebook for the history and core principles of content analysis as well as an essential resource for current and future studies. Organized into three parts, the book examines the conceptual and methodological aspects of content analysis as well as tracing several paths through content analysis protocols."
