Handbook of Qualitative Research Methods for Psychology and the Social Sciences Reviews

'In view of the increased attention being given to qualitative methods, this volume is timely and should provide a thorough introduction to the topic, growing as it has out of a series of workshops held by the BPS over several years... This book should prove very useful as a set text on a research methods course for a number of disciplines and would be a welcome addition to the library of those currently engaged in research, giving many new ideas and challenging preconceptions about qualitative methods.' Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry.
