I have noticed, after recommending this book to bachelor students, that they are now able to give a more concise and accurate explanation of how they intend to conduct a small action research study. This is very pleasing as english is not their first language and so concerns that this book may be too complicated for non-english speakers have now been reduced. We therefore intend to recommend this book to master and bachelor students intending to conduct action research as their dissertation project.

For my Cert Ed/PGCE students conducting educational research this book, with its focus on healthcare, provides a useful source of alternative perspectives on the use and value of Action Research. In particular the first chapter provides clear definitions of various approaches to Action Research. The book is very well illustrated and contains a number of useful illustrations and diagrams together with case studies to demonstrate how techniques work in practice.

I have recommended this for a group of MSc students who are required to undertake Action Research for one of their assessments. As the title suggests, this is particularly useful for those undertaking action research in healthcare settings.

This book enables students to understand the strengths of action research in health care with application of case study.

The book enables students to understand the strengths of Action Research in Healthcare in the undergraduate population.

An informative introductory text to those new to action research, with examples that help to apply basic principles to health care.

As someone new to the area of Action Research this was a comprehensive and usable guide. It takes the reader on a logical progression from what is ActionResearch on through the practical steps of how to do it. It is an easy to read guide, providing practical exampels to illustrate different issues and a comprehensive reading list at the end of each chapter. An ideal text to accompany a module on research methods.

This is an excellent text, thorough and thought provoking.

A clearly written text introducing Action Research to Healthcare students. A prospectively pertinent form of research for students in clinical service.

This is an excellent text for the new action researcher. It gives excellent guidance through the process and will be great value to all levels of experience but particularly the new researcher

This book falls into the category of really good investment.

Its easy to navigate, very wide-ranging and a rarity - a book on research that is even pleasant to read.

A positive text

Useful reading for undergradute students undertaking leadership modules

Well written and applicable outside the field of health reaserch as well.

A really useful intriduction to applying action research approaches in healthcare. Fits well with the applied research elements of the relevant research methods module for our course.

The book is designed more for professionals in practice rather than undergraduates. Therefore I have passed the book onto my colleague who runs the postgraduate diploma module which centres on research.
