Research quality is the prime consideration for any methodology and in qualitative research it is also one of the most elusive and hotly contested. This impressive handbook, the latest from Uwe Flick, an international authority on qualitative methods, is contemporary – with themes of diversity, decolonisation, and digital resources threaded throughout the contributions – and closely reflects the increasing multidisciplinary presence of qualitative research.
As ever this is an immensely valuable edited collection expertly steered by Uwe Flick, a gift to the qualitative research community. Established arguments and new directions coexist seamlessly together.
Professor Uwe Flick is a leading figure in qualitative inquiry who has published several excellent collections that are now seminal in the field. His current venture is masterful. The SAGE Handbook of Qualitative Research Quality sets new standards for assessing quality in the field with a diverse collection of chapters that offer something for everyone engaged in qualitative inquiry. This handbook offers an invaluable resource for emerging and established scholars and practitioners.
This is undoubtedly an important, long-awaited and necessary book for qualitative research. Recognizing the complexity of the issues involved in qualitative research quality, this book shows the variety of answers, by situating them in the theoretical and epistemological backgrounds where they have emerged. It also provides researchers and students with the tools to think through their own research practices in a more mature and enlightened way. Certainly a must!
