Description:

Sociological Storytelling is a volume of directed reflections by sociological researchers on the motivations for research, the decisions made at crucial points, and the challenges they face in the research process. The volume is thus intended to combine the intriguing elements of memoir and the enlightening aspects of a research "post-mortem". Readers will be able to use the volume to both humanize the research process and explore the complications of research.
