Strategies of Qualitative Inquiry, Fourth Edition isolates the major strategies—historically, the research methods—that researchers can use in conducting concrete qualitative studies. The question of methods begins with questions of design and the matters of money and funding. These questions always begin with the researcher who moves from a research question to a paradigm or perspective, and then to the empirical world. The history and uses of these strategies are explored extensively in this volume. The chapters move from forms (and problems with) mixed methods inquiry to case study, performance and narrative ethnography, to constructionist analytics to grounded theory strategies, testimonies, participatory action research, and clinical research.
Key text for both novice and more experienced researchers.
A thorough and interesting text.
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 text for students who need a qualitative element in their research programme.
A key research text book
This edition further complements the outstanding series of textbooks focussing on the dynamic and often complex nature of qualitative inquiry. This book and indeed the series are comprehensive and accessible.
This is part of an excellent series of texts relating to strategies of qualitative qualitative inquiry. I have recommended this book (and the series) to my students as novice researchers who are grappling with the dynamic nature 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 need to understand different aspects of qualitative research in depth to justify their research proposals and studies.
While too difficult for my 4th year students I prescribe it for my M and D students and recommend it to my Colleagues.
Exciting and updated, this book shines new lights on old and new ideas in the field of qualitative research.
