Product Description
In this, the first of a three-volume paperback version of the landmark Handbook of Qualitative Research, editors Norman K. Denzin and Yvonna S. Lincoln survey the field of qualitative research from a wide-ranging theoretical perspective. Part I locates the field, providing historical context as well as background on applied qualitative research, the "self" and the "other," and the politics and ethics of qualitative inquiry. Part II examines the major paradigms that inform and influence qualitative research in the human disciplines. Part III considers the future of qualitative research. The Handbook of Qualitative Research is the state of the art in evaluating the field of qualitative inquiry and features contributions from many of the leading scholars in the area. Now published in paperback in response to the needs of classroom teachers, The Landscape of Qualitative Research is an ideal volume around which to build a course on research methods, across a wide number of academic disciplines.

The editors bring together a very good representative sample of the "state of the art" in qualitative research. In an age of paradigmatic controversies, this book is very helpful in understanding the issues under discussion.
As a grad student in anthropology, I found this book to contain a number of useful chapters. It perhaps goes without saying, but it is most useful as a pointer to source materials, rather than being an end unto itself.

The authors attempted to show how scholarly they are by using very hard to understand language. I would have appreciated language that was easier to understand to help me deduce their perspective
