Useful for students' dissertations - the writers appear to have the same values as our team so this book is a great addition to the reading list
This is a useful resourse that will be appreciated by our students as a quick reference guide

Very helpful indeed to help define concepts but not much of a good structure for students to find their way in the labyrint of qualitative research
A useful 'dip-into' type book for students working fairly independently at the start of their projects. I have made a few copies available.
It is a great reference guide and does an excellent job of explaining the particulars of a given term, as well as including additional readings on the topic.
