E-grāmata: How to be a Reflexive Researcher

In an age where reflexivity has gained increased attention, this book stands out for its comprehensive, holistic exploration of this topic. Rooted in his expertise and with a voice of authenticity and compassion, Hibbert explores the complexity of reflexivity in a nuanced manner while also providing clear guidance for how to integrate reflexive practice into all phases of the research process. Whether one is just beginning their doctoral program or has decades of experience with interpretive scholarship, this work can help the reader learn and grow as a researcher and in cultivating a scholarly way of life. -- Danna Greenberg, Babson College, USA I wish I had read this book as a new PhD student and researcher. I was immediately drawn into Pauls personal story, used to explain key reflexive concepts and four reflexive practices which structure the book. The focus on everyday future oriented reflexivity, what I should do next? and past-oriented reflexivity how did I come to make those choices? really provoked my thinking. It is brilliant in vividly illustrating reflexivity as a personal project, reflexive practice and the messiness of research. A must read for new and experienced researchers. -- Sharon Mavin, Newcastle University, UK An outstanding achievement. Hibberts book provides us with an authoritative and ambitious resource for developing and analysing our own practice as reflexive researchers. His command of his subject is evident in the way he renders complex theory and methods accessible and practical, drawing on his own personal and professional experiences in support. Delightfully, he demonstrates how to be a reflexive researcher through the act of writing the book. An indispensable resource for reflexive researchers at any stage of their career. -- Helen Sullivan, Australian National University, Australia
