Classic Grounded Theory Summary

Classic Grounded Theory: Applications With Qualitative and Quantitative Data by Judith A. Holton

Classic Grounded Theory: Applications With Qualitative and Quantitative Data provides practical how to guidance for doing grounded theory (GT) using the classic approach articulated by Barney Glaser. The authors emphasize the philosophical flexibility of classic GT as a full package approach that can be applied to any study and any type of data where the goal is to discover and generate a conceptually integrated theory. Drawing on the experiences of novice researchers who have participated in GT troubleshooting seminars, the book provides step-by-step guidance on undertaking a research study that stays true to the classic GT practice paradigm.

Classic Grounded Theory Reviews

Classic Grounded Theory does a superlative job of clarifying and extending the works of Barney Glaser and the classical school of grounded theory in a way useful to both scholars and practitioners interested in applying this approach to the study of social behavior. -- Wayne A. Babchuk
This is the classic grounded theory coach novice researchers have wanted. The authors anticipate the issues that stump people new to classic GT and answer frequently asked questions throughout the chapter. A clear, helpful resource. -- Vivian B. Martin
This book is an excellent resource for researchers who want to situate their knowledge of GT within historical perspectives and tensions that contributed to the development of GT. -- Karthigeyan Subramaniam
A nice overview and presentation about what classic grounded theory (GT) is. The book explains well the emergence of classic GT and the authors share their own experience in conducting GT. Beginners as well as advanced researchers will find some useful insights for conducting their own research. Classic Grounded Theory is a source of inspiration for encouraging the emergence of grounded theories. -- Sebastien Point
