- Synopsis
- The 2005 first edition was titled Research Methods in the Social Sciences, and the change signals an intention to guide and inspire high quality research practices rather than just prescribe techniques. The contributors are not methodologists but researchers themselves in their fields, such as education, psychology, medical sociology, and so on. They cover reading, reviewing and reflecting; listening, exploring the case, and theorizing; addressing issues of power and research for impact; observing, querying, interpreting; identity, community, and representation; theories and perspectives of quantitative methods; quantitative methods in action; and researching in postmodern contexts.
