A state of the art research book on qualitative research for the seasoned researcher and those pursuing post graduate studies.
This book gives a very thorough yet easily understood account of all the key concepts - a fantastic resource.
This volume concentrates on the philosophical and social aspects of qualitative research (the social more than the philosophical, but there is significant overlap). Of the three volumes, this provides the broadest intellectual setting, but the least in terms of practical knowhow regarding the undertaking of qualitative research (for that, the Collecting and Interpreting volume is a brilliant choice.). Thus, this volume is ideal for the researcher who is looking for intellectual material to rationalize and support quals as the research approach.
Excellent depth of discussion, across a range of qualitative perspectives
A fantatsic analysis and practical examples for any student that is/will enage in qualitative research. The book not only deals with theoretical issues, but also analyses the practical implication when employing a particular theoretical paradigm.
Although this book has in-depth information on qualitative research methods, it would be more suitable for postgraduate students. However, I would recommend sections of this for some of my more academic dissertation students. I would also recommend this to our postgraduate research students.
An excellent introduction to the complexities of qualitative research.
A key text for business students embarking on a research study.
will be recommending for masters students
useful addition to our suggested titles
Although the book provides an excellent foundation of understanding epistemology and phenomenology, the book is probably better suited to students undertaking a BSc in year 3/4 or undertaking an MSc.
For teachers undertaking research this is an excellent text
This is part of an excellent series of texts relating to understanding the nature of qualitative research. I have recommended this book (and the series) to my students as novice researchers who are grappling with the dynamic nature of qualitative research
The book is a valuable survey over the great variety of qualitative Research styles. Perhaps more than other books with similar aims, Denzin et al manage to highlight the worldviews accompanying the various modes of qualitative research.
This classic text is recommended for students undertaking qualitative research studies at the dissertation stage of their Masters programme. It is also going ot be a recommended text for Developing Research and Evaluation Skills.
It's an excellent book, particularly for students who are more able and want to know more about the background and origins of qualitative research
Denzin's work continues to remain right up-to-date. Concepts that have been considered are revisited in relevant ways which are well-considered and easily accessible.
First time I will use this as a recommended read for students. A very useful book for advanced teaching research programmes. Well structured to use alongside a course. Each chapter provides an in-depth analysis of issues in the field. A good read on a wet windy evening.
Recommended for anyone undertaking qualitative research and to understand the methodology better. Useful theory for all practices.
An excellent book, particularly suited for post graduate students. Well written and informative
Excellent articles -- but not so many as to make it impossible to include other readings.
