Designing & conducting ethnographic research / Margaret D. Lecompte, Jean J. Schensul.

LeCompte, Margaret Diane. (Author). Schensul, Jean J. (Added Author).

Summary:

"The Ethnographer's Toolkit begins with an overview volume that denies the enthographic enterprise, links research strategies to theoretical paradigms, and outlines the ways in which an ethnographic study can be designed. Using practical, straight-forward language, the authors of this volume then introduce readers to the enthnographic process of identifying issues, choices, and techniques covered in greater depth in other kit volumes, including chapters on the personal qualities of a good researcher and on research ethics."--Jacket.
