Throughout the volume, the emphasis on building both theoretical knowledge and practical skills helps to facilitate understanding of how qualitative and quantitative methods can complement each other. Each chapter includes examples drawn from a range of research settings as well as tasks for practicing data collection and analysis techniques, questions to prompt reflection, and suggestions for further reading.
