New to This Edition
· Includes new developments in qualitative interviewing: New materials cover narrative, discursive, and conversational analyses.
· Presents interviewing as a social practice: Knowledge produced by interviewing is discussed as linguistic, conversational, narrative, relational, situated, and pragmatic.
· Addresses a variety of interviews forms: In addition to harmonious, empathetic interviews, the authors also cover confrontational interviews.
This text is ideal for both novice and experienced interview researchers as well as graduate students taking courses in qualitative and research methods in the social sciences and health sciences, particularly departments of education, nursing, sociology, psychology, and the media sciences.
Praise for the previous edition:
“I think this is one of the most in-depth treatments of the interview process that I have seen. The frank and realistic approach that the authors take to this topic is rather unique and will be very reassuring to researchers who are undertaking an interview study for the first time.”
—Lisa M. Diamond, University of Utah
