All the fundamental issues in nonresponse area are discussed, for example, nonresponse bias, the various causes of nonresponse, and measurement tools to assess the efficiency of fieldwork strategies. With real life case studies from twenty-five countries, the book uses a wealth of data taken from the European Social Survey (ESS) and is accompanied by a Web site hosting the survey data.
