Summary:"Designed with the graduate student in mind, Qualitative Research focuses on helping the reader cultivate and integrate theoretical, methodological and conceptual knowledge to provide insight into the interaction and to help understand the central concepts, topics and skills needed to engage in rigorous, valid, and respectful qualitative research. The authors have balanced communicating the foundations and processes of qualitative research with clarity and simplicity, while at the same time capturing its complexity and the multiple layers that were central to writing this book. Whether you are new to qualitative research or not, the goal for this book is to develop and deepen your understanding of an approach to research that seeks, designs for, and engages criticality in qualitative research.
