"The Handbook of Qualitative Organizational Research is a marvelous compendium of essays by those doing some of the most original qualitative research in our field.

The contributors take us from business schools to prisons, from hermeneutic circles to social networks, from concept maps to multilevel discourse; and in doing so, they provide a wealth of ideas for study design, data collection and analysis. The content strikes a nice balance between the conceptual and epistemological issues underlying the research methods and the practical considerations of deploying them in organisational settings. -Denham Phipps, PhD, University of Manchester
