Offers an overview for health students and health professionals embarking on an applied research project using a qualitative approach. This book provides insights into the ideas and arguments underpinning different qualitative methods, and highlights the links between theory and practice.
"I like the way the author spends time on the background to and planning of qualitative research, rather than leaping straight into methods, which is what students tend to do! Descriptions and explanations of theoretical and practical aspects of qualitative work are combined well at a level that will engage students and professionals alike. The chapters on methods of qualitative data collection in particular are comprehensive awith many helpful practical tips."
Catherine Perry, University of Chester, UK"I strongly recommend this book to all those lookng to undertake ethical and rigorous qualitative research in the field of health and health care."

Hansen provides essential insights into the ideas and arguments underpinning different qualitative methods, and highlights the links between theory and practice.
