Customer Reviews

Excellent best practices tool

Human experience, as a subject, and not object is very well illustrated and applied. Social change happens not just on education, training, and instruction. Experience and documenting this experience for posterity is a lesson that is hard to learn, easy to apply and simply common sense to know. Good book.

Experience research social change : methods from the margins

An excellant guide for the early career researcher. I particularly found the summaries and checklists at the end of each chapter useful. As a matter of fact, I responded to all the checklists as a way to make the initial pass through writing up my methods section and felt that (along with Leedy) it was a good exercise to gather my thoughts and record the process. A useful addition to the student library.
