Description

In this volume, now in paperback, over 40 researchers across the social sciences offer a series of engaging accounts reflecting on dilemmas and issues that they experienced while conducting and communicating research on personal life. Their insights are food for thought for students, researchers, professionals and anyone using, planning or conducting research on families and relationships, encouraging critical reflection on the readers’ own processes. Researchers’ accounts are organised under and commented on by insightful overviews. David Morgan leads with consideration of framing research; Kay Tisdall reflects on ethical considerations in research engagements; Angus Bancroft and Stuart Aitken each comment on researchers’ accounts from ‘in the field’; Lynn Jamieson discusses dilemmas in interpreting and representing families and relationships and Sarah Morton and Sandra Nutley reflect on getting research into policy and practice.
