Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this landmark volume emphasizes the dynamic, interactional, and reflexive dimensions of the research interview.

The book begins with an overview of the history and conceptual transformations of the interview, which is followed by chapters that discuss the main components of interview practice. Taken together, the contributions to the handbook encourage readers to simultaneously learn the frameworks and technologies of interviewing and reflect on the epistemological foundations of the interview craft. The handbook has been updated to address recent developments, especially in qualitative interviewing. Twenty-six chapters are completely new; the remaining twelve chapters have been substantially revised to give readers access to the state of the art of interview research. Three entirely new sections include "Logistics of Interviewing," "Self and Other in the Interview," and "Ethics of the Interview."

The Handbook serves as an invaluable resource for approaching research with an open mind.

This book was released on 2022-05-05 with total page 958 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Qualitative research is growing in Asia and globally.
