Reviews

[Sassy Sarah Reads]

It was a helpful tool for learning about qualitative research, but some of the research and advice/tips felt a little outdated at times.

[Sam]

Robert C. Bogdan and Sari Knopp Biklen co-write an introductory guide to theory and methods in qualitative research for education. Each chapter progressively describes the development of each complementary component of qualitative research work. Topics include the history of early research, research design, qualitative data collection, fieldwork relations (or etiquette), data analysis, writing and disseminating research findings, and the application of research (e.g. evaluation, pedagogy, and action research). While some readers unfamiliar with social science research might be overwhelmed by book's content, other more familiar readers should find the available information a useful introduction for a theory and methods course.

[Apostolos]

not a bad book. good for those new to qualitative research

[Melusine Parry]

Contains the immortal sentence: 'Like the words "sex" and "snake", "ethics" is emotionally charged and surrounded with evocative and hidden meanings.' (p.42)
