Qualitative Interviewing explores a wide range of qualitative interviewing methods, offering practical guidance on planning, conducting, and analyzing interviews. Moreover, the discussion of ethical considerations makes it a valuable resource for both novice and experienced researchers.
I had long searched for a qualitative interviewing textbook for students, and within the first few pages, I knew this was the one. I was impressed by its broad coverage and thoughtful attention to interviews with women and people of color.
The editors have done an excellent job structuring the book in a holistic way—from concept to data collection—that offers diversities of engagements with interviewing while also considering essential concepts such as reflexivity and practical applications.
This book provides a thoughtful and needed approach to interviewing. The editors make a compelling argument in parsing the difference between interviewing as a method and interviewing as part of a methodology that strategically aligns with other perspectives. Moreover, they emphasize earlier distinctions in approaches and how important those distinctions are.
