This unique text provides a broad introduction to qualitative analysis
together with concrete demonstrations and comparisons of five major
approaches. Leading scholars apply their respective analytic lenses to
a narrative account and interview featuring "Teresa," a young opera
singer who experienced a career-changing illness. The resulting
analyses vividly exemplify what each approach looks like in action.
The researchers then probe the similarities and differences among
their approaches; their distinctive purposes and strengths; the role,
style, and subjectivity of the individual researcher; and the
scientific and ethical complexities of conducting qualitative
research. Also included are the research participant's responses to
each analysis of her experience. A narrative account from another
research participant, "Gail," can be used by readers to practice the
kinds of analysis explored in the book.
