Qualitative Interviewing

The Art of Hearing Data

“The book does a wonderful job of detailing how to develop questions, probes, analyze data, and organizing our data.”

“This book is exactly what I was looking for in that it covers interviewing and analysis in depth.”

“The Third Edition will be very useful for graduate students. It appears to seamlessly shift its lens from broad landscapes to close-ups without losing focus on the content.”

“Students leave this book fully informed of the nuances and complexity of interviewing as well as excited about the promise interview research findings offer.”

“This text is well-written and easy to follow. It follows the natural flow of a qualitative project.”

“The authors provide a clear and detailed illustration of the nuts and bolts of interviewing in qualitative research. The focus on the reflective process, question development, and procedural steps associated with qualitative research is rich and thorough.”

“This edition is at once simpler, and clearer yet more expansive and richer in content, examples and use.”

“[The book] is somehow both more concise and more comprehensive than the Second Edition, providing a rich discussion of philosophy as well as design and analytic methods. The authors also have a very pleasant writing style that is engaging to the reader, and provides both clarity of the concepts discussed as well as a sense of a strong knowledge through the use of personal narrative and sharing of experiences.”
