Summary "This innovative book combines what most books separate: research as practical activity and research as intellectual engagement. It highlights and clarifies the methodological issues that underlie the journey from initial research idea to the finished report and beyond." "The book provides a range of insights and original perspectives. These successfully combine practical guidance with the invitation to consider the problematic nature of research as social practice. It is an ideal reference for those embarking on research for the first time and provides a new methodological agenda for established researchers."--Jacket
