Description and Table of Contents

Description

This manual offers methods of conducting field studies within the social sciences, and aims to present the rational features of this seemingly irrational process. The authors have systematized their own extensive experience with field studies, providing advice to future researchers on how to avoid the most mundane and traditional mistakes. The first part of the manual describes four real-life research stories, and the second part is a systematic effort to draw methodological conclusions from the stories.
