The author sets out an easy-to-use model for coding data in order to break it down into parts, and then to reassemble it to create a meaningful picture of the phenomenon under study. Full of useful advice, the book guides the reader through the last difficult integrating phase of qualitative analysis including diagramming, memoing, thinking aloud, and using one's feelings, and how to incorporate the use of software where appropriate.
Ideal for third year undergraduate students, master students, postgraduates and anybody beginning a research project, the book includes examples covering a wide range of subjects - making the book useful for students across the social science disciplines.
Hennie Boeije is currently an Associate Professor with the Department of Methodology and Statistics of the Faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences at Utrecht University, The Netherlands.
Like the Dutch version, it is a really helpfull book for bachelor as well as master level students

A very good book on qualitative data analysis for beginners, the book is well written and easily accessible. The author provides examples of coding and guides the reader through the integrative phase of analysis.
This is a good book which provides concise explanation of the analysis strategies for qualitative research. I put it down in the list of additional literature for the module.
Students are always challenged regarding "how to do" an analysis. This book provides insights, explanations and descriptions for students to practically apply the processes of data analysis.
We advise this book to our student who are going to conduct qualitative research for their master thesis
This is a user friendly text that I think will be very useful for students. Analysis is often the difficult point within the research process, when coming from a quantitative background
Quite a good practical guide to some of the more difficult aspects of qualitative research, particularly segmenting, coding and analaysis. Probably better aimed a post-graduate students - but a good book
The book gives a good outline about QL data analysis. Shorter than some clasical texts in the field yet comprehensive.
It's a very clear book and close to the research practice. The focus is on analysis, but - adding texts on datacollection - it can be used for a course on 'qualitative research' in general.
