the links between philosophy, research method and practice in an
accessible, readable way. It offers guidance to allied health
professionals - increasingly involved in research as the
emphasis grows on evidence-based practice - on how to engage
in meaningful, good quality qualitative research.
To help researchers take on this challenge, the book:
* highlights some of the choices involved in carrying out
qualitative research
* offers a wide range of practical examples to show how different
ways of doing qualitative research can be managed
* critically examines a variety of qualitative research
methodologies of particular interest to allied health
professionals
* clarifies the links between epistemology, methodology and
method.
The book is structured in three parts. Part I sensitises
readers to the complex issues which challenge qualitative
researchers at the planning stage of their projects. In Part II,
the challenge of using different methodologies is critically
explored by fifteen authors, who describe their individual
research experiences. Part III examines the choices researchers
make when they evaluate and present research.
