Interviewing is used very widely in qualitative research, and takes many different forms. It is also a method that is constantly evolving, in response bothto theoretical and technological developments. King and Horrocks present a clear and thorough guide to the use of interviews in contemporary qualitative research. Writing in an accessible style, with many practical examples, the authors explore: The key debates in the philosophy and theory underlying interviewmethods; How to design and carry out interviews; The special requirements of group and remote (telephone and online) interviewing; The central issues of reflexivity and ethics. There is a substantial chapter introducing the principles and practice of the thematic analysis of interview data, and the book concludes with a detailed consideration of the use of interviews in two major qualitative research traditions: phenomenological and narrative approaches. Interviewing in Qualitative Research is a must-have for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students planning to use interview methods for themselves. It is aimed at a broad range of disciplines with examples drawn from across the social,educational and health sciences.
