Qualitative Inquiry: Thematic, Narrative and Arts-Based Perspectives

Qualitative inquiry is not merely a research method or a series of analytic steps, but a holistic process that challenges the age-old qualitative/quantitative dichotomy. This book provides students and researchers with an approachable guide to a range of interpretive perspectives, including thematic, narrative, and arts-based types of inquiry.

Fully revised and updated, the Second Edition features:

• A brand new introduction firmly placing qualitative inquiry in context
• New further reading sections to guide you deeper into the relevant literature
• Expanded sections on auto-ethnography and technology
• A range of examples to demonstrate the application of research techniques

Presenting a clear overview of the theory, method and interpretation involved in qualitative inquiry, this book is the ideal starting point for those engaging in arts-based qualitative research.
