Set-Theoretic Methods for the Social Sciences: A Guide to Qualitative Comparative Analysis
ISBN: 9781107601130 / Angielski / Miękka / 370 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

This book guides readers through the basic principles of set theory and then on to the applied practices of QCA. It provides a thorough understanding of basic and advanced issues in...
