However, this is a unique book. This is because it is written by a young man who has been privileged to be involved in research across different countries. The author has also collaborated with excellent researchers across many countries. The author has therefore brought his many years of research experience and collaboration in writing this book. This is a very practical, simple to read book on steps/approach to conducting research and how to write research report. It provides simple steps and techniques on how to approach each section of the research with practical examples. It deals with the research process, highlighting key components of the research process. It starts by defining research methodology, research, reasons for doing research and the importance of research etc. The author did not take things for granted. He examined basic statistics in research and ethics in research as it affects human, animals and natural products. Experts have developed guidelines over many years as the benchmark for doing research and for measuring the validity of the results obtained. Failure to follow the guidelines could prevent research findings from being accepted. These protocols can vary between disciplines, but all follow the same basic structures and principles. Therefore, this book is a` humble contribution from the author to the scientific community, postgraduate students and different professionals who are engaged in research or contemplating of doing so now or in the future.
