Doing Interview Research Reviews

This book is not just yet another manual about interview procedures. Rather, the strength of this excellent extended discussion is that the author not only knows about interviews in theory, but is also experienced in actually putting that theory into practice when conducting interviews. This makes for a book that is able to address how to do interviews in a thoughtful and responsible way, as the discussion is grounded in the theoretical, ethical, methodological and practical thinking that shapes how interviews are conducted. -- Julianne Cheek
A clear and practical guide to conducting research interviews for those inexperienced with qualitative methodologies and methods. -- Shanu Sadhwani
Doing Interview Research is a comprehensive, captivating guide for carrying out interviews. It has everything the social science postgraduate researcher requires to explore the expansive nature of qualitative inquiry. A very informative resource for both students and supervisors. -- Jessica Clapham
Uwe Flick tackles interviewing-a ubiquitous research method-in his exceptionally useful and user-friendly book. By ending each chapter with a recurring refrain-what you need to ask yourself, what you need to succeed, and what you learned-he invites readers to actively and reflexively engage with the material. -- Karen Staller
This book gives the reader an excellent introduction to interview research. It provides rationales for choosing interviews and discusses when to do interviews and why. It is a comprehensive and yet accessible book that includes the whole process, from designing interview research to conducting different types of interviews in different contexts, and to analyzing and reporting interview data. Throughout each step, Flick thoughtfully discusses epistemology, quality, critiques, and reflexivity, so the book offers the reader a theoretical approach at the same time as clear guidance on how to design and conduct interview research. -- Robert Thornberg
