Good general introduction to the issues of undertaking fieldwork. Clear writing style
Very useful book which I will definitely order for my dissertation students for both undergrad and postgrad (MA in Education) which I have now taken leadership for. We do not have a directly equivalent text specifically on field work
Delivers methodological knowledge in plain language, very insightfull and of high didactical value
This is a really strong piece of literature that should be regarded as essential reading for any scholar conducting field based research. The authors provide a insights into the theory and practice in a comprehensive manner. This may be particularly useful for post-graduate students and those committed to conducting situated research. Possibly the most engaging methodology book I have read in some time.
Fieldwork is an important method of undertaking research, yet it's often misunderstood. This book equips the fieldwork researcher with the necessary skills to undertake this form of activity.
Great starter text for those not as familiar with social research methodologies and entering research.
This is a great resource for undergraduate and postgraduate study.
To give students an idea of doing fieldwork in research.
I will use this to inform my teaching and will recommend that the library purchase a copy / copies.
