Publisher's Synopsis
Why we do research? How do we create knowledge? How does the research process brings about change? This book addresses these questions. Originally published in hardcover as `Exploring Clinical Methods for Social Research′, this paperback edition has published under a new title to stress its focus on research methods which place the scrutiny of self in the centre stage of social enquiry.
The introduction discusses the historical, conceptual and personal interests being served, and four sections focus on clinical issues, understanding, involvement and methods. Each chapter is written by a different researcher, and many examples are given. The book will serve as a valuable reference tool.
