"Qualitative research seeks to discover and portray participants’ perspectives, uncovering new insights into our lives and social contexts. Within that paradigm there are numerous qualitative research designs, each guiding researchers towards this underlying goal in a slight different way. In this second edition of qualitative research in practice, Sharan Merriam and Robin Grenier have assembled a set of 16 articles exemplifying 8 key qualitative designs, allowing you to see how each approach informs real-world research. Each article is accompanied by the researchers’ reflections, so you can share in the process of discovery that characterizes the qualitative process."--Back cover
