"A wonderfully constructive achievement that justly reclaims the
legacy of action research in psychology. Giving the reader a broad
and diverse view of the vibrant new work in this area, the book is
a superb resource for anyone wanting to familiarize themselves with
state of the art psychological action research. It also serves the
newcomer admirably as an introduction to action research generally
and to some of its most talented practitioners."
*Davydd J. Greenwood,Goldwin Smith Professor of Anthropology,
Cornell University*
"Destined to become a classic in all areas of psychology as we
expand our view of psychological methods. This collection will
become a must-have to train students to go beyond traditional
methods in psychology, as well as for those researchers who want to
expand their training and engage in research that speaks to the
general public. The discipline as a whole will be enriched by the
publication of this book."
*Aída Hurtado,University of California, Santa Cruz*
"Moves the spotlight from experiments to experience. A fabulous
array of psychological stars show us both what qualitative
psychology is and how to do it. This book has the potential to
change the field of psychology by opening it up to diverse
empirical approaches and compelling subject matter."
*Shulamit Reinharz,Brandeis University*
"I commend this book to researchers and teachers of researchers
alike. We are indebted to the pioneering authors for sharing their
experience and frankly addressing the issues and practical barriers
to pursuing justice through feminist research."
