Qualitative Data Analysis with NVivo Reviews

I can see this book being used as a bible by qualitative researchers keen on maximising the benefits that NVivo can offer. It is also likely to act as a frequent refresher resource for more experienced NVivo users, myself most definitely included. -- Andrew Edwards-Jones * Journal of Education for Teaching *
