Reviews
<p>When I first looked at this book I wondered if there was room for yet another title on qualitative research in health.
<p>While many texts focus on theoretical perspectives and the methodological approaches associated with qualitative research, few offer insights into the actual ‘doing’ of
<p>As a recent recruit to a lecturerpractitioner post with little recent experience in the subject area covered by this book, I found it met my needs very well.
<p>Written by two experienced authors, this book is a useful addition to the literature addressing focus group practice.
<p>This is the seventh edition of a much- referred-to classic text on programme evaluation.
<p>Both authors work at the University of Texas at Austin, and neither has a background in healthcare research.
<p>This book is based on the author ’s experience of undertaking evaluation across a variety of places and programmes, motivated by a desire to contribute to ‘social servi
<p>This book is aimed at students who are new to postgraduate studies, whether they have just completed an undergraduate degree or have been in the workplace.

<p>A book concerning social theory that is a core text for an Open University module about ‘Human geography, philosophy and social theory’ may not be a text to which nurse researchers are immediately drawn. However, this publication is worth a closer look.</p>
<p>This book emerges at a critical time in developing research to aid understanding of the health needs of minority ethnic groups.
<p>This book, like others in its series (for example, grief, divorce and sex life), aims to present its topic in a straightforward and reader-empowering way. It scrupulously pares back any material that is not strictly necessary.
<p>So you need to write a thesis and want some succinct, practical guidance. You don’t want to plough through hundreds of pages or follow up a list of references to other material.
<p>The National Statistics Socio-economic Classification (NS-SEC) was officially released in 2001 following a review by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) and the Social and Economic Research Council (ESRC).
