<i>‘Shortt and Parsley’s book is a much-needed guide for those interested in research that moves beyond the limitations and hegemony of text. They beautifully combine theory and practice in what I think will quickly become an indispensable resource for business and management research. Congratulations, Harriet and Sam!’</i>
