About this title

Synopsis

This comprehensive text takes a practical approach that mirrors the path that students follow in conducting a research project. The book is based on the authors′ highly successful multidisciplinary qualitative methods workshops, which have been conducted for over a decade. They introduce a ′qualitative research cycle′ that leads students through the selection of appropriate methods, the collection of data, and the transformation of findings into a finished project. The book provides a clear explanation of the nature of qualitative research and its key concepts.
