Bailey (sociology, Virginia Technical University) gives advanced undergraduates and graduate students more advice on techniques for analyzing data, understanding ethics and using paradigms in this edition while continuing her focus on the entire research process. She covers the history of field research and status characteristics along with defining such concepts as the naturalistic setting, purpose, and values of the work, and the, using classic ethnographies, examples and exercises describes ethics, selecting a topic, practicality, accessibility, infrastructure such as theory and traditions of inquiry, and basic methodology. She gives practical steps in making observations, interviewing, taking field notes and leaving the field, coding, creating memos and descriptions, and using typologies, taxonomies, visual representations, storytelling, critical events, analysis induction, choosing evaluation criteria and preparing the final manuscript. The index does double duty as a glossary. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
