Product Description

Product Description
The Second Edition of this bestselling text offers students and first-time researchers invaluable guidance to the practice of qualitative social research.

Throughout the author addresses the key issues which need to be identified and resolved in the qualitative research process, and through which researchers develop essential skills in qualitative research. The book highlights the `difficult questions' that researchers should get into the habit of asking themselves in the course of doing qualitative research, and outlines the implications of the different ways of responding to these questions.

The new edition of Qualitative Researching has been fully revised and updated with expanded coverage of observation, documents, visual data, CAQDAS, and writing qualitative research. The text bridges the gap between `cookbook' approaches to qualitative research and abstract methodogical approaches. Helping the reader to move comfortably between principle and practice, this text has proved to be an invaluable introduction to qualitative research, and a useful aid to accomplished qualitative research practice across the social sciences.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good hand book for researchers using qualitative methods, 4 Oct 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Qualitative Researching (Paperback)

I found this book invaluable in my post graduate studies and research work. Jennifer Mason addresses both practical elements of qualitative research and more importantly the epistemological and theoretical approach which is so often neglected in this type of book. There are good examples throughout and main points are emphasised in boxes in every chapter.
Beginning with a introductory chapter about what qualitative research is and should be, subsequent chapters deal with the research process in an intuitive order, from 'planning and designing qualitative research', to 'producing analysis and explanations which are convincing'.
It is not a long book but it is thorough, well written, and I would recommend it.
