'This is an excellent new methods book on collecting and analyzing data from social media. This is the new frontier of social science data, and this book gives scholars and students the toolkit for its study.' Staffan I. 2022, Professor and Director of the V-Dem Institute, University of Gothenburg 'Steven Wilson offers a practical guide to what is arguably the most exciting new species of social science evidence brought by the twenty-first century: the Twitterverse. In addition to being useful, this book is fun! Highly recommended.' John Gerring, Professor of Government, University of Texas at Austin, 'Social Media as Social Science Data should be the go-to resource for anyone motivated to produce knowledge using Twitter data. It is clearly written, covers the three main types of analysis available with tweets, and provides useful code samples.' Zachary Steinert-Threlkeld, Assistant Professor of Public Policy, University of California - Los Angeles
