Recenzje

"Interventionist research is an emerging research method which has growing interest in schools and disciplines which teach qualitative research. My students often ask me to recommend some book on how to conduct interventionist research project. The problem has been the lack of teaching material on this topic. Finally, we’ll have a useful guide book to fill the demand." –Hanna Silvola, Aalto University, Finland
