Reviews
"This engaging and readable text offers invaluable help for any social science researchers grappling with reflexivity." Helen Kara, We Research It
"Provides a framework of how to conceptualise reflexivity and its successful integration into one's own research... particularly recommended for students and early career researchers who seek to contextualise and understand their `identities' in the research process." Dr Eric Baumgartner, Teeside University
"An essential guide for working sociologists; it not only provides a clear theoretical and empirical exploration of the concept and practice of reflexivity, but also provides opportunities to recognise how far we ourselves already do reflexivity and how we can use it to improve our research and teaching practices." Mark Taylor, University of Sheffield
