A practical overview for health students and health professionals
embarking on an applied research project using a qualitative approach.
Successful Qualitative Health Research offers a thorough introduction
to the field, written in a very clear and concise fashion. Emphasising
the rigorous approach required in health research, it provides a step
by step guide to designing a research project using qualitative
methods, and to collecting, analysing and presenting different types
of data. Hansen provides essential insights into the ideas and
arguments underpinning different qualitative methods, and highlights
the links between theory and practice. She also explains the
importance of choosing the most appropriate form of data analysis.
Each chapter features real life examples from experienced researchers
from a wide range of health fields. These examples show how
researchers have overcome common problems and offer inspiration and
guidance. Applied qualitative research is increasingly being used to
explore a range of issues in health, both on its own and as an adjunct
to quantitative research. This book offers a clear, no-nonsense
approach that will be invaluable to students and professionals in
nursing, medicine, allied health and public health. 'I strongly
recommend this book to all those looking to undertake ethical and
rigorous qualitative research in the field of health and health care.'

old hand . . .' - Associate Professor Jane Gunn, Research Director,
