'Sedorkin and McGregor provide journalists and writers with a wide-ranging, detailed and eminently useful guide to the art of the interview. From basic research to legal traps, they cover the subject fully. Newcomers to the craft will find this an invaluable book.'

'This comprehensive text on interviewing offers plenty of sound, practical advice for young journalists, working in both print and broadcast media. It is up-to-date with contemporary practice, such as email interviews, and is greatly enhanced by its numerous interviews with leading practitioners,'

Jim Tully, Head of Mass Communication and Journalism, University of Canterbury

Good interviewing is the key to good reporting and good stories. It's a difficult skill to acquire and it can be stressful-but you can learn how to approach a total stranger and elicit information on a topic about which you know nothing.

In this clearly-written guide, experienced journalists Gail Sedorkin and Judy McGregor show you step by step how to manage the interview process. They explain how to prepare, and what to do when you don't have time to prepare. They outline the difference between 'soft' and 'hard' interviews, and show how to make the most of any interview situation.

With tips and examples from leading Australian and New Zealand journalists, Interviewing is an essential guide for journalists, researchers and writers.
