This book takes a novel approach to qualitative research by reviewing and comparing side-by-side five approaches to conducting qualitative research: narrative, phenomenology, grounded theory, ethnography, and case studies. By including five approaches, the qualitative researcher can identify the type of qualitative research best suited to study a problem.
