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 edition, but with much more besides. As a consequence, this book should preserve its status as the essential introductory text for all students of qualitative research.

Editorial Reviews
Review
`The inclusion of examples, summary points and further reading is to be commended and adds to the clarity of an already clear and easy to understand text. The strength of the book lies not only in the clarity with which it is written but in the use of examples and tables.... I would have no problem in recommending this text equally to both pre and post-registration students of nursing, and also to students studying for higher degrees as a useable text which is easy to read and contains a vast amount of information which is logically presented' - Nurse Researcher

A bit disappointing ! ! !,
By A Customer
This review is from: An Introduction to Qualitative Research (Paperback)
This books starts well, dealing with all the qualitative tools, and explains quite well the differetn strategies of coding... except that, this book do not expand one's knowledge in qualitative research... it only introduces the mainframe of the qualitative research.
