An Introduction to Qualitative Research (2nd ed)

This Second Edition of Uwe Flick's bestselling textbook retains all of the student-friendly elements and carefully structured and thought-through qualities of the first, but with much more besides.

As a consequence, An Introduction to Qualitative Research, Second Edition should preserve its status as the essential introductory text for all students of qualitative research.

All of the major theories, methods and new approaches are still presented in an accessible manner.

As well, the incorporation of many practical examples and summary boxes, helping to inform students and researchers of the right decisions to take in terms of research strategy, ensures that this text remains thoroughly practical.

However, each chapter has been fully updated in terms of references and reading lists, and an entirely new section on Recent and Further Developments has been written, including chapters on: Computers in Qualitative Research; Qualitative and Quantitative Research; Quality in Qualitative Research; and The Future of Qualitative Research.
