These methods often remain undocumented – a gap that this book starts to address. Written by experts from various methodological fields, \u003ci\u003eTransforming Research Methods in the Social Sciences\u003c\/i\u003e is a comprehensive collation of original essays and cutting-edge research that demonstrates the variety of novel techniques and research methods available to researchers responding to these context-bound issues. It is particularly relevant for study and research in the fields of applied psychology, sociology, ethnography, biography and anthropology. In addition to their unique combination of conceptual and application issues, the chapters also include discussions on ethical considerations relevant to the method in similar global South contexts. \u003ci\u003eTransforming Research Methods in the Social Sciences \u003c\/i\u003ehas much to offer to researchers, professionals and others involved in social science research both locally and internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wits University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52637490118936,"sku":"9781776144600","price":68.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/transforming-research-methods-in-the-social-sciences-case-studies-from-south-africa-hardback-9781776144600","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
