Reseña del editor

'Stringer's book on action research provides an accessible introduction to conducting participatory inquiries for social change...This is a very good introductory volume that can spark ideas, discussions, and (self-) reflection on how to better link theory and practice' - Forum: Qualitative Research

Thoroughly revised and updated, the scope of the Third Edition has been broadened to include the literature and theoretical movements that have taken place since the previous edition. Updated web links and expanded appendices provide cutting edge information on action research along with new case studies and examples as well as an expanded section on doing a literature review.
