Practical Guide to the Qualitative Dissertation
Call Number: (ebook)
ISBN: 9781429499699
Published in 2007, "Writing a good qualitative dissertation really demands only three things of you: a good idea, rich data that you analyze thoughtfully, and the discipline to write a finished product. Students doing controversial work on politically volatile topics around race, gender, class, sexuality, and ability sometimes face difficulties. Rather, this is a book about how to think about some of the different concerns that arise during the course of doing a dissertation."
