Accessible, informative, extensive topic coverage
An excellent resource
Well thought out chapters. I feel like this is a book version of a research supervisor for qualitative research!
I dont like electronic books and many students do not either. However I do like David Silvermans work and for students who can work with electronic books I think this is a highly recommendable text
