Abstract

In this introductory chapter to The Oxford Handbook of Quantitative Methods, I provide an overview of the two volumes. More specifically, I describe the rationale and motivation for the selected topics that are presented in volumes. I also list out my instructions to the chapter authors and then describe how the chapters fit together into thematic groupings. I also extend my sincerest gratitude to the persons who assisted me along the way, as no work this comprehensive can be done without the considerable help and assistance of many persons. I conclude with how pleased I am with the quality and comprehensiveness of the chapters that are included.
