Numerous boxes contain concrete research examples and illustrations to further clarify important points. Practical Tip boxes in every chapter include “how-to” guidelines that demonstrate how information can be utilized in a manner beyond the theoretical discussion of the MMRS process. Exercises provide concrete activities related to conducting each step of the MMRS process for hands-on practice.
