About this title

Synopsis

This is a book on how to conduct qualitative research. There are some excellent books on specific qualitative approaches, especially participant observation, insightful personal accounts of researchers in the field,and treatises on the theoretical underpinnings of qualitative research. Yet these do not provide those unfamiliar with qualitative methods with an adequate introduction, an overview of the range of different approaches, and guidance on how to conduct a study. This book is intended to do these things.

From the Publisher

This straightforward guide to qualitative research shows how to plan a research project, collect and analyze the data, and interpret the findings. The second edition covers a broader range of research methods, including participant observation, in-depth interviewing, and a host of creative approaches such as unobtrusive methods and personal documents analysis. Specific examples illustrate how to report the findings from qualitative studies.
