Media Reviews

“This book uses everyday language that will captivate students’ attention and embed practical knowledge to supplement the technical.”

-- Gaetane Jean-Marie

“The key strengths of the text are the passion and the enthusiasm that Dr. Maxwell has for qualitative research after all these years. I feel I can also utilize these concepts on my own research team and take them out of the classroom and into research team meetings with colleagues.”

-- Deborah Gioia
“I really liked this book. I found myself taking notes and saying “yes” so many times because Maxwell captures the research process so well and provides many points worth quoting. As a faculty mentor, I particularly see the value of this book for my students who are conducting qualitative dissertations.” -- Mary S. Enright
"Maxwell provides a clear explanation regarding the nuances involved in the circular process of qualitative research design." -- Tracy M. Lara
