A one-stop-shop for students new to qualitative data analysis!
Found this book very useful for introducing the different approaches to qualitative analysis. Will also add it to reading list for this course for next year
This book will be recommended reading on the life science qualitative research methodology units. It covers well the diverse range of methods suitable for all four of the individual science subjects.
A useful reference text for all students undertaking qualitative studies, although more appropriate for those following higher degree studies.
At a higher level than some students might wish to work, but very useful for lecturers and for those who are keen to expand their understanding of data analysis.
A nice easy to use book about data analysis for Masters and undergraduate students
Provides a good overview. Very good examples. I would have preferred more depth than the range of techniques.
A very good, user-friendly text. Ideal for students who are trying to get to grips with data analysis.
A very good book on qualitative data analysis. The language of the book is easily understandable and it contains good examples in how to analyse qualitative data. In particular research students who are inexperienced in managing qualitative data, this book acts as a indispensable tool for them.
The book by wellknown authors Carol Grbich does not disappoint the researcher who needs to analyse data
