A Very Short, Fairly Interesting and Reasonably Cheap Book about Qualitative Research David Silverman

This is the book which everybody doing a research project has been waiting for. Writing in an informal and accessible style, David Silverman offers the reader an entry into the broader issues of qualitative research that many textbooks gloss over - the underlying arguments of qualitative research and the key debates about its future direction.

Silverman shows how good research can be methodologically inventive, empirically rigorous, theoretically-alive and practically relevant. Using fascinating materials, ranging from photographs to novels and newspaper stories, this book demonstrates that getting to grips with these issues means asking ourselves fundamental questions about how we are influenced by contemporary culture.

David Silverman provides an antidote to the boring textbook, which is relevant to any degree course on research methods. Brilliantly written and always challenging and entertaining, this book will challenge your perceptions and help you think `out of the box' about the nature and process of doing qualitative research.

`David Silverman has drawn on his enormous experience in writing, teaching and using qualitative research methods to produce a book that lays bare key dilemmas and confronts questions that qualitative researchers often avoid

The main strength of this book is its clarity to raise awareness of the implications for carrying out qualitative research. For ungergraduates I would consider this to be an important supplimentary text to have at hand...For expereinced student researchers this is an excellent text to help you raise interesting and searching questions to realise new avenues that could be followed in your qualitative research
